    In as sense, yes.  The animals feel comfortable and have all they need to survive.  They have pleasant neighbors meaning that predators are kept away.  They have a supermarket nearby - meaning that they do not have to travel to hunt their own food - it just appears.  Additionally, they live in clean comfortable spaces which are cared for and they do not have to worry about being evicted.  In these ways, a zoo would indeed be like a suburb.
