I agree. There is commerce there with acquiring animals for display.

Most zoos, whether private or public charge for admission. It is a pay for view business.

Whether or not the proprietor chooses to be "profitable" or a non-profit, is simply a matter of choice.

It's simply a "how to handle the books" decision. Volunteers and interns aside, I can guarantee you, the owner and employees (key stakeholders) get a pay check. Never seen one take a vow of poverty yet.
