ABSTRACT:
The vehicle of this invention is a skid-steer type having a pair of boom arms pivotally mounted thereon and extending forwardly therefrom. An animal carcass handling bucket is pivotally mounted on the forward end of the lift arms and is adapted to receive a pair of beef quarters or the like therein and to support the same in an upright position. The vehicle includes a propane tank at the upper rearward end thereof which has a guard extending therearound to prevent the propane tank from coming into contact with hanging meat. A rollover protection structure is also provided on the vehicle and a guard is secured to the upper end thereof for preventing the structure from coming into contact with hanging meat. The vehicle is ideally suited to handle two quarters of beef or the like at one time, transporting them from meat rails and loading them into refrigerated trailers or the like.
