PETA's concern for the emotional well-being of the critter aside....
Hmmm, wild animal kept in captivity and fed cat food, gets let go back in the wild to probably get hit by a car anyway, but now has a taste for human food... and less of a natural fear of humans so it may come closer around humans more often and possibly endgager children, pets, and possibly (a joke) ....the elderly.

or
Wild animal, left in wild, natural fear of humans, stays further away so less of a possible danger, probably gets hit by a car anyway.
New Years Eve- Use a nice stuffed possum, rather than a live critter or road kill. It is the spirit that counts anyway right?
Besides aren't cars a bigger threat to the emotional well-being of Possums, you know road-kill phobia syndrom and all. Perhaps PETA needs to threaten to sue Ford and the USDT instead....
