Toss it. Critter might survive because of those calories. And, as my 3-year old told me as he peed out in the woods, “pee pee doesn’t make the world dirty.” Neither do apple cores.

Critters are likely to cross the road or be more exposed to traffic when people throw food scraps out their window. You're more likely to get that critter killed than keep it alive with the 45 calories in an apple core https://www.facebook.com/GlacierNPS/photos/a.360427434911/10156904600259912/?type=3

Hey man, I like Opossums. It's good to keep them alive by letting people know this.

I like them too. So excited to feel guilt for the hundred banana peels and apple cores I have pitched out of windows throughout my life.

:( We don't know what we don't know. All we can do is our best moving forward. Places like Wilderness Trails Wildlife Center do good work letting people know about issues like this.

Thank you for informing me! I will spread the word!
