This depends on what type of animal you are talking about. Orphaned wildlife that isn't found by humans tends to be abandoned and often dies in the wilderness. Sometimes humans can intervene and take orphaned wildlife to a wildlife rehabilitation center, although this is rare. Orphaned domestic animals under the care of a dedicated owner will often either be fostered out to another mother in the same area or may be hand-raised by the owner. Unfortunately, there are some owners that will just abandon orphaned baby animals and allow them to die; this is often considered criminal animal neglect.

What is the word when an animal is abandoned in the zoo?

If you are referring to baby animals that are abandoned by their mothers, they are usually called "orphans" or referred to as orphaned. Once it is clear the mother either, isn't capable of raising the baby, or will not raise it, then usually the keepers will take over the responsibility of hand rearing the baby. If you are referring to the animals that are sometimes abandoned at the zoo, they are often referred to as the unwanted, or abused. Most are in poor health and in need of serious medical care. After they recover, if there isn't a place for them at the zoo, they will normally be moved to another zoo or a shelter.
