I saw a couple of older guys who had shot a cow moose on the Wainwright base. We asked if we could help them load the critter, but they said they were fine. They pulled up with their Ford Explorer (old style - truck like) and had a hitch rack on it.

They gutted the cow, backed the truck up to it's back, dropped the hitch rack a bit, but the back of the cow on the rack, put the hitch rack up to level and rotated the cow so she was on her back on the rack . They then tied the legs to the roof rack. And with that they headed home. Pretty slick actually.
