translocated
Shifted to another
Translocated means moved from one place to another.
The word appears most often in technical contexts: biologists translocate endangered species to safer habitats, geneticists study translocated chromosomes where segments have switched positions, and botanists describe how nutrients are translocated through plant tissues.
The wolves were translocated to Yellowstone in 1995.
