Live feeding to zoo animals... really necesarry ?

Does live feeding necessary to zoo animals ?
There are lots of channels which shows the hunger, chase and the stress or tension to live or survive. All those that we watch in TV are just to know their behaviour and life style. Death in wild is acceptable. For eg; A Deer running for its dear life from a Lion or Cheetah... If the Lion doesn't run faster it has to be in hunger... and if the Deer doesnt run fast, thats the end of its life. Thats Nature.

But for a snake which is in captivity in a Zoo, should it be fed with a chick which is alive ?

Even animals in a better and well maintained Zoo with natural enclosures are Zoo animals. They are not wild animals.
