Copy/paste without carrying over the background color

[FormerTGFGuy]

If I want to copy and paste an image from one animation to another within the animation editor, it often also brings the background color along with it, encasing the image in a black rectangle (or whatever the background color happens to be). How can I stop this?

You can't, really. However, you can easily fill in the old background color with the new background color with the fill tool.
