Yes, this is one of the big advantages of having Zoos, they can help with the actual breeding, or store the sperm and eggs and then implant them to help advance the species. Whatever works, especially for endangered animals. Many times Zoos have helped keep the numbers of a species from dropping too low, also keeping the blood lines from becoming to narrow. You can work with Zoos from across the world as they did with the Panda babies. Not only opening the way for the animal to expand it's genetic pool but also for human communication, and relations to expand. What this person put is completely and utterly wrong zoos enceminate females through a long hard and painful process that only works 2% of the time there is an elephant at a zoo that was enceminated 247 times with only 1 baby that later on died of a disease. Zoos are bad for are animals before choosing where to go for the weekend with your kids please consider that.
