ABSTRACT:
An animal handling apparatus for turning over from one side to the other side a relatively large animal with front and rear legs, a back, a stomach, and opposite sides including a frame, a first brace connected to the frame, a winch connected to the frame, a cable having opposite ends with one end connected to the winch, a handle with one end connected to the frame, and a second brace connected to the frame. In operation, the animal handling apparatus is positioned near the animal's back, the cable is extended under the animal and secured to the animal's front legs, the winch retrieves the cable drawing the animal's front legs toward the animal's stomach, and the first brace engages the animal's back near one side of the animal. The handle then is moved pulling the animal's front legs in a direction generally toward the animal handling apparatus and generally under the animal, thereby causing the animal to be turned over from one side to the other, the first and the second braces engaging the animal to maintain the turning engagement between the animal and the animal handling apparatus.
