Hi John,
In general, a occasional animal is fine but there can also be other effects such as outbreeding depression if the animal is from a seperate enough population. Outbreeding depression can take as much as three generations to show the effects and depending on the amount of difference it can actually render a local population non-viable. There were some interesting studies done with anurans and these effects.
