A bale wrapping implement includes a main frame supported on a caster wheel mounted at the center of gravity of the device. The main frame is coupled to the axle of a large round baler for vertical pivotal movement so that the wrapping implement is able to follow the contour of the ground. An auxiliary support wheel is mounted to the main frame so that it engages the ground only when the bale wrapping device is supporting a bale to be wrapped. The main frame includes first and second components which are pivotally coupled to each other and a linkage including an extensible and retractable hydraulic actuator is coupled so that a pair of parallel rolls carried by the second component are disposed in a location close to the discharge gate of the baler for receiving a bale when the actuator is extended and are located remote from the gate in a position for wrapping the bale, when the actuator is retracted.
