Abstract: A bale handling device including a bale frame and and an attachment mechanism for attaching the device to a vehicle such that the bale frame can be raised and lowered. The bale frame includes a support beam as a primary bale support, a pair of arms connected with the support beam, and a pair of bale engaging members connected with the arms as a secondary bale support. The secondary bale support is located relative to the primary bale support such that when a bale is positioned within the bale frame and lifted by the device it is supported by both the primary bale support and the secondary bale support and its center of gravity is located between the primary bale support and the secondary bale support.
