The article proposes an alternative method for evacuating large osteological objects of scientific and expositional value from hard-to-reach areas on a sea coast. On the example of a 1.2-ton skull of the largest toothed whale Physeter macrocephalus Linnaeus, found during the first season (2019) of the integrated long-term expedition «Eastern Bastion – Kuril Ridge» on the Urup Island (Kuril Islands), the process of evacuation and delivery of the object to the Zvenigorod biological station of Moscow State University is considered step by step. Difficulties and nuances arisen during the evacuation activities are described in detail, the knowledge of which can help in organizing such events.
