Dragging fur causes damage,yes even on snow.If you are unable to pack it out,bag it and drag the bag,or skin it out.

Trap them in the winter,you wont have to carry them at all,out of the ice hole and into the snowmachine sleigh.

No reason to drag fur when you can easily pack them out in a good canoe pack.

I throw coyotes and beaver over my shoulders to get them out when I have to..... If there is no snow it seems easier to me than my jet sled.. I need you to come to Illinois, throw me over your shoulder and carry me, the beaver and all my gear out!! LOL! Kinda like the Jerry Jeff Walker song - "Throw Another Log on The Fire"...

I packed out a few beaver In my day. I just used a backpack frame and ratchet strapped the beaver to the frame.
And I dragged a few coyotes to the truck this year. I don't see where dragging a coyote or for that matter a beaver a short distance through the snow to the truck Is going to do any damage to It.

WE killed 33 coyotes and never saw a flea on the ones I skinned. That has never happened before.
