Please find the AZA bylaw statement that the AZA is against any private animal ownership. I just have not seen it first hand...
in general the AZA does not support private ownership of exotics. what does the AZA mainly care @? mammals, what type of mammals? lions, tigers, bears, oh my...so
And just because you are under the umbrella of the AZA does not mean you agree with all their policies. In general the AZA is an accrediation org not an enforcement org. So many different zoos take different slants on AZA policy. Not to mention, a number of facilities are looking at other zoo membership organizations such as WAZA and some other one that started in florida, as they are not happy with AZA.
