Abstract: A Protective Head For Animals comprises a pair of sheet-like pieces of material fixedly connected to one another and each having an eye opening. The protective head cover further comprises, in particular, an adjustable, flexible strap which slidably extends through the sheet-like pieces of material and is supported and guided by a strap guide which is fixedly attached to the undersides of the sheet-like pieces of material. The strap is adapted to allow the ears of the animal to nondeformably fit between the sheet-like pieces of material and the strap so that the strap does not cross over the ears thus cutting off the circulation of blood through the ears. The protective head cover urges the ears to rest essentially flat against the neck of the animal to allow the heat of the body to warm the ears.

Abstract: This invention relates to a pelvic splitter device and method of use thereof used primarily by hunters to split the pelvis of a large game animal during the gutting and cleaning of the animal. The pelvic splitter device comprises a shaft having a hook member and a knife edge at one end thereof and further comprises an impact and handle means having two longitudinal half bodies having mirrored sides with grooves, longitudinal recesses, and recessed portions therein to receive the shaft. The impact and handle means slides upon the shaft and functions, in addition to storing the shaft when not in use, as a slide hammer to impact the rearward end of the shaft to urge the hook member and knife edge through and split the pelvis of the game animal such as a deer.
