An apparatus includes a gambrel that defines two hooks configured to support an animal carcass. A fastening system is operatively connected to the gambrel and is configured to releasably connect a bladed tool to the gambrel. In one embodiment, the fastening system includes at least one magnet that retains one or more tools with magnetic force. The apparatus provides a convenient, safe, and clean place to store tools while processing an animal carcass.

A gambrel for hanging an animal to be butcher or skinned, the gambrel having an adjustable length suspension bar from which lines extend to be wrapped around the legs of the animal to be butchered or skinned. The adjustable length suspension bar consists of one elongated member inserted into another elongated member. Each elongated member has a slot through which each end of a gambrel suspension line is extended into and retained within each elongated member so that the geometry of the gambrel suspension line remains the same when length of the adjustable length suspension bar is changed to accommodate different sized animals.

A support device securable to a tree or other similar support for use in suspending game animals therefrom. The support device includes a clamp that can be removably affixed to a tree trunk or similar support, wherein the clamp includes one or more sets of teeth to engage with the tree trunk. An elongated arm having a first end and a second end is attached to the clamp at a first end thereof and extends outward from the clamp. The second end of the elongated arm includes a loop thereon that can be used to suspend a game animal, such as a deer, for cleaning. The support device can be affixed to trees of various shapes or sizes and can be positioned at a desired height on the tree.

A portable hoist provides motorized hoisting and coincidental skinning of game animals. The hoist is preferably secured to an existing motor vehicle and is made using an adaptable segmented frame. A top frame portion includes an electric cable winch and may rotate to any orientation to position a hanging animal carcass where desired. A base portion of the hoist includes a pair of clamps which grip a hide portion of the animal. The winch is then used to simultaneously hoist and remove the hide of the animal.
