Just curious to see what everyone has come up with for carrying out those pond pigs from way in deep. Mine is 2 cheap shotgun slings with small rope loops on the ends to put on the beavers feet so I can backpack them out.

That looks pretty simple but smart on your part.

I bought a small critter carrier from Smokey's Trapping Supply. It uses a garden hose with wire rope in it

I use a fold up toboggan type sled. Didn't work for sledding in the snow, but works good for that.

If there is snow I just put a rope around the head and drag. With multiple beaver ad a short rope from back leg to head of the next beaver. Makes a train that drags very easy.

If one looks closely at this pic you see them beaver fleas making their way towards that nice luxurious and warm beard!

The problem I see with packing them out is they are usually wet inturn soaking the carrier. I use an Otter sled that I added nylon strips to the runners. I can load it with traps and equipment easily pull this across snow, grass or gravel.

Good thinking Tyler anything to reduce the load.
And 'peeler.... castor/urine dripping on the back of the hip boots...lol
Mine is similar to what AJE mentioned but it is definitely more than Tyler's....physical especially with two or more.

I trap em right next to the road.

A small otter sled... drag stuff in, drag stuff out, use a harness to pull...

That's what I use too. I call it my dead sled.

We use those type of “sleds” for deer as well. Had one until the boys hooked it to the 4-wheeler and took turns riding in it…across gravel and pavement. Doesn’t float well with holes in the bottom!

Yes a wet beaver on your back is the main problem with this carrier but I dry out pretty quick and I can only remember catching one beaver in the past that had fleas on it so maybe im just lucky!

I made two snare cables 12" long with loop on each end and slide it through a piece of garden hose to cushion the cable on you shoulder. They fit in your pocket and use for hit and run instead of the jet sled.

I bring my 20 year old nephew.

Usually a stick through the trap itself is a nice handle, even conibears are self made handle itself, but the critter hangs lower and drags......j

My ice fishing sled works on grass And snow

A good heavy canvas canoe pack with a Tump strap is the best thing to carry beaver out of the bush.3 or 4 will fit in if you got the stones to carry the weight.
I can still carry 2 big beaver in my canoe pack even at my age.
When younger I have carried up to 5 in the canoe pack.

Little kids red plastic snow sled. Slides pretty easy on everything.

I have two of them. Two are easier to carry than one.
