Salt licks are important for our wildlife. They can be easily built by yourself! We will tell you what to pay attention to.

Every living being needs salt to survive. Many important functions can only be performed by the body with the help of salts. For example, chloride, as a component of gastric acid, contributes to digestion. The wildlife obtains its mineral needs through natural foraging, which varies depending on the time of year. During the shedding of fur, nursing, antler growth, and gestation periods, there is an increased need for mineral intake.

How to properly set up a salt lick, how many you need per species, and what else you should pay attention to can be found in the article on our partner site Jagdblatt:
