Zoos do exchange animals. Sometimes it’s a “I’ll trade you a mountain lion for two alligators,” but quite often they will exchange individuals of the same species to maintain biodiversity. In this way some zoo animals are better off than their wild counterparts who mostly inbreed within their own herd.
