The article comes from a non regular media outlet which is anti capitalistic, says so on their website in the "about us" section, so I pretty much think this is a scare tactic to make people look and think and maybe not buy .......Perhaps enabled by some Organic pet food industry...... or certain opinionated Vegans, but not all of them......

I will say that most of the road kill in our state,stays on the road for days on end, till the other critters, birds and other omnivores,(maybe even homeless humans) take it off the road. Oh yeah or ran over thousands of times by the tractor trailers and other vehicles.
The chart about phenobarbital levels is right on the FDA website. I hate to debunk your conspiracy theory, but the AFCCO definitions are reprinted all over the internet:
