The single elk of mine that made it to an abbatoir & certified scales weighed 663 lbs (we always process our own meat). This particular elk was a big bodied 6x6 but certainly not the biggest. I even remember the man measured the horns & they were 366.
But my concern is for someone transporting a gutted animal in the partial vacuum slipstream of a vehicle spewing unburned hydrocarbons & whatnot onto the meat, not to mention the dust, sand and ground-up coyote crap deposits. The missus will be less than enthusiastic!
