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:
Probably not, the cluster of balloons would be so big you’d need a considerable amount of string, and at some point the overhead will be so big that each balloon will add more weight than lift.
Still, a moose is probably possible, just with more balloons.
You can’t infinitely chain balloons because the string has limited tensile strength. There indeed is a limit but it’s pretty high, especially if you use a fishing line.
That’s why I’m listing the live weight. A dried-up rabbit carcass partially eaten by a fox will of course weigh less by a highly variable fraction, whose estimate I’m leaving up to you.

So you can lift a dead moose with 60 000 ballons?

Or you attach the balloons to each other
Or, better yet, one BIG balloon!!!
…what do you mean this already exists

Hyatt disaster but for roadkill and balloons…
Hyatt disaster but the aftermath is just a sad realization you can’t recreate the movie Up
c/theyalmostdidmath ?
You don’t need a whole rabbit - half of a rabbit is just as much roadkill.
