Somebody asked, why didn't they just give it to Gwaihir, Lord of the Eagles, and have him drop it in Mount Doom?
The problem is, eagles are the creatures of Manwė. An Eagle in Mordor would be noticed right away, unlike Frodo and Sam. I doubt that even Gwaihir would get all the way to Mount Doom without Sauron and/or the nazgūl stopping him.
