Abstract: A compact and portable game skinning aid designed to facilitate more efficient skinning of small game and fur-bearing animals, which includes a cable bar having a pair of internal cable guides communicating with each end of the cable bar, and a cable partially embedded in the cable bar with the cable ends slidably threaded back through the cable guides to define a loop at each end of the cable bar, the ends of the cable then attached to a mount bar positioned in spaced relationship with respect to the cable bar. In one embodiment of the invention an eye bolt is secured to the mount bar in order to suspend the game skinning aid from a secure mounting point, and the feet of a fur-bearing animal are positioned in the cable loops projecting from each end of the cable bar to secure the animal during the skinning operation.
