Oh I know. I've skinned and quartered in all kinds of conditions. I hate it when I shoot a bear at last light, but that's often when you spot one.
I've skinned several by headlight and headlamp on a tarp in the middle of the road after getting the critter up or down to the road. One time it was a 200 yard pull with every rope I had uphill. The rope broke three times and I had to run downhill, find the break, re-attach, pull until it broke again until I finally got the bear up to the road in the pitch dark.

I used to work in Alberta, Cargill in High River, Lake Side packers in Brooks, Maple Leaf in Lethbridge, I’ve been there, I saw things and how it was professionally done. I also been to Ontario Provincial processing plants, and know how the game animals are processed. But, watching is one thing, doing the job is another thing. I only cut one front quarter through shoulder joint. The neck, the leg and the other shoulder I used a saw. I couldn’t find the joint. Lol
