I agree with most of the comments above except splitting the pelivis to aid cooling.
I never bother with this, either it is cool enough to not bother or I leave the pelvis intact and open up both hip joints, it is the synovial fluid in the joints that goes off first and causes bone taint.
If you are concerned about anything going off open up the hip joints.....or even all the leg joints.
Pork is exceptionally bad for bone taint if not cooled rapidly but it can happen to venison or chevon too.
