Meat and Antlers with United Airlines

[Alaska2025]

I'm HOPING to be flying home from Fairbanks on United Airlines with some caribou meat and antlers this September. I've flown with meat before, and I'm well aware of the TSA rules for the antlers, and I've read up on United's rules for these items. However, I've never actually flown with United and these items before. Can anyone attest to if their experience with United was good or bad, or things to look out for? I plan on printing out the Airline's and TSA rules so that I can show them to a ticket agent if needed. TIA

I flew with them in May and had a soft cooler full of tuna as my carry on with no issues. Ended up checking it at the gate for free.

I stuffed a whole boned out hog into it last year and did the same. I did get a little extra attention at the TSA gate but it was no issue.
