The zoo tag says nothing about size, that is defined by polygon size.
I don't see a need to narrow the definition to larger operations.

The sub-type of a zoo can be defined, depending on your local situation,
zoo=petting_zoo (445)
zoo=enclosure (947)
might be a correct description?

You might also consider the zoo as the whole area there, and map the four cages with barrier=fence
