Don't animals live longer in zoos than they would in the wild?

It sounds like irrelevant.  Suppose a zoo decides to exhibit human beings.  They snatch a peasant from a less-developed country and put her on display.  Due to the regular feedings and health care that the zoo provides, the peasant will live longer in captivity. 
A tradeoff of quantity of life versus quality of life is not always decided in favor of quantity.
