In this paper, a novel system for automatic detection and classification of animal is presented. System called ASFAR (Automatic System For Animal Recognition) is based on distributed so-called `watching device' in designated area and main computing unit (MCU) acting as server and system manager. Watching devices are situated in wild nature and their task is to detect animal and then send data to MCU to evaluation. The main task of whole system is to determine migration corridors of wild animals in designated area. To create object representation, visual descriptors were chosen and Support Vector Machine (SVM) was used to classify descriptors.
