I can only speak to the facilities I am familier with, but in those cases the enclosure operator orginally purchased the "hooved" animals from the state, thereafter would bring in breeding stock females and purchase semen to artificially inseminate them, of course the semen was from some huge bucks. (also privately owned).

Buying the game from the state must not be the only way it works, cause I have heard of instances where the state comes into a new enclosure after the fence is up and kills every hooved animal, then the operator stocks with his private game...
