Several things you can do, pack it in ice, process it and quarter and debone the meat and pack it in ice chests.

Purchase the mesh for meat that keeps pests off like we had to do when I was in Wyoming elk hunting. You'll want to gut and skin it as soon as possible to cool the meat.

Again, lots of stuff you can do.

Good luck.

The doe I shot last Monday was on a warm day. I shot the deer at 7 and had it quartered and in the fridge by 9.
