  > Standard Takeoff Weight: 42.6 kg > Max Takeoff Weight: 47.5 kg (at sea level) So just about 5 kg (11 lb). Medium size dogs weight trice that, plus a net, maybe the drone was modified to lift more. Hovering time of 10-15 minutes also seems to be not that much for the rescue operation, flight and howering times with a payload will be even less.

    Though website mentions thrust-to-weight ratio of 1.7 for 47.5 kg, so it can lift up to extra 33 kg. There is also a description of a spraying system with a tank of 20 l/kg, so it seems 20 kg is the actual payload capacity.
