Bringing a sheep as a carry on

[Farmerlentz]

Anybody have any experience with this. Shot my first sheep In Alaska last week. I'll do a write up when I get home. Fly out of Fairbanks Thursday and wondering if I can keep my skull and horns in my carry-on. It will be all wrapped up. Thanks

I don't believe this is that uncommon.

I did it. Didn't have any issues other than the lamb tip pretty much wrecked the zipper on my carry-on.

I've done it with frozen hides and fish from Alaska. No reason it wouldn't work with horns.

Congrats on the success!!

AK airlines would prolly be cool with it. Others, I dunno.

All I have to say is I’m so glad I found this group of people! I am going on my first sheep hunt hunt September 30th for a 10/1-10/10 hunt and I hope I love sheep hunting! You all are awesome.

Hope you enjoyed Fairbanks OP. It isn’t a bad place to live.

Buy the seat next to you, put the head in it, have a conversation with it the entire flight. Don't forget to order it a drink.

I’m running to Samuel L. Jackson now with the scrip to my new movie masterpiece titled “Sheep’s on a plane”.

Congrats on your successful hunt!

should be no problem , I bought a duffle bag put sheep horns in and flewout of fairbanks. 2 times no issues at all. congrats on your sheep

 

[ColeyG]

No issues on AK airlines. I carried one on under my arm and put it in the overhead storage. Lots of funny looks and questions from some of the passengers.

Lots of sheep on my last flight to Denver.

Saw a guy with one at the Anchorage airport yesterday...

I didn't do carry on, i put in luggage but there was another hunter that took on carry-on. American Airlines had no issue with either of us.

You do have to package up those lamp tips though, mine wrecked the inside of my bag lining

 

[Farmerlentz]

Made it home with no issues. Thanks for all the advice. I stuck it in my carry-on back pack and was good to go. The biggest issue I see with sheep hunting is how to afford more sheep hunts. I don't think once will be enough for me!

I actually put my horns and cape in my checked baggage and shipped my dirty clothing home via USPS one rate boxes (nice stinky surprise when they arrived). I also froze all of my meat in a cheap cooler and checked it in as well, it all worked great!
