Abstract: A holder from which the carcass of a small animal, such as a squirrel, may be suspended in a head-down position for partial skinning and a head-up position for completing the dressing out of the carcass, has a diamond-shaped frame adapted to be hung from the upper acute angle portion of the frame. A pair of pointed prongs extend outwardly and upwardly from the obtuse angle junctions of the frame for impaling the hind legs of the animal, and a forwardly contoured loop portion having a restricted passageway between the frame and the loop enclosure is adapted for supporting the animal from its neck for completion of the skinning procedure and subsequent evisceration.
