Abstract: An all-terrain vehicle lifting crane apparatus is provided, having a pivotable and telescoping lifting boom and a tethered lifting hook that is powered by hand crank or by electric motor. The apparatus includes a base plate supporting an upstanding post, within which the vertical member of the lifting boom is pivotably supported therein. The lifting boom includes a telescoping structure to allow for extending its length over an article to be lifted. Both the telescoping aspect and the pivotable aspect are securable to lock the apparatus into a static configuration. The device is ideally suited for connection to an all-terrain vehicle and for lifting large game animals onto the vehicle cargo area after a hunt.
