I didn’t understand any of that.
What is a wet specimen? Wouldn’t it take a bunch of balloons to float roadkill?
Why is a wet specimen and flying roadkill similar?
A normal-size balloon of helium can lift about 10 grams. Hares can be about 4 kilograms. Totally doable but that’s a lot of time, balloons and helium to just waste!
Anyway, here are some more species and approximate adult weight when alive:
- Bug (windshield): 0.1 g
- Frog: 20 g
- Mouse: 20 g
- Snail: 25 g
- Hedgehog: 600 g
- Rabbit: 1 kg
- Cat: 4 kg
- Moose: 600 kg
