If all zoo animals were set free, which ones could adapt

+0
−0

In this scenario, all the humans on earth have disappeared, except for Fred. Sure, Fred is sad that everyone that exists is dead but him, including his friends and family, but he doesn't let that get him down in the dumps. What did get the former PETA supporter, Fred, sad was all the zoo critters. So he hopped in his car and trucked across America to free the zoo animals. Foolishly though, after freeing them, he was eaten by a lion.

Now that Fred has freed all the zoo animals in America (don't concern yourself with how he did this), did he accomplish anything? Would the animals commonly kept in zoos, such as lions, chimps or hippos even be able to survive in an environment so different from their own?
