For questions like this you can use ZTL (zootierliste.de).
Some birds aren’t to find currently in UK zoos: Auckland Teal, Black-necked Grebe, Red-necked Grebe, Slavonian Grebe, Brazilian Merganser, Blue Duck, Grey Teal, Cotton Pygmy Goose, Green Pygmy Goose, Hooded Crane, Horned Screamer, Kelp Goose, Madagascar Pochard, Maked Duck, Mottled Duck, Musk Duck, Northern Screamer, Torrent Duck and Whooping Crane.
I doubt we‘ll see some of them again in European collections.

A good day at Dungeness RSPB in Kent might have a mixture of Red-necked, Slavonian and/or Black-necked Grebe as well as Long-tailed Duck and Smew in the winter

You can find a wild living Bean Goose at Slimbridge with the Greylags (possible an escapee or off course, not ringed). Sighted around the Discovery hide I've now seen it more than once.
 
Eric is the Yellow-billed pintail the ones they have labeled as Yellow-billed duck as one my last 4 visits they have had Yellow-billed ducks but I didn't see any labels for Yellow-billed pintails if they do have them in which exhibit are they please?

Possibly with the Chilean Flamingos? Yellow-billed Duck would be the African Yellowbill.
