A mapper in my area added several tiny zoo's: http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/49005889?#map=19/50.74418/4.28134

They are probably some enclosures where you can see animals, but these are just some cages in an otherwise non-zoo leisure area. I think zoo is obviously wrong, but I find the wiki page for tourism=zoo not entirely clear on that. I'm thinking of adding a clarification that a zoo is for a larger area with primary function being a zoo, which may contain one or more enclosures.

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
