5 - Personal preference, I prefer not to look at a tragically sad looking, obvious zoo animal as art (hard to find the right words here), despite that - the feel and capture does first say to me 'zoo shot' - which it shouldn't, unless this was your intent (apologies in advance if so). Having said that, I too have taken zoo shots and tried to 'artify' them... Maybe it makes a difference if you can't obviously tell they're in a cage - unless, as intonated above, that is your intent.

3 - Possibly potential, with refinement of crop/composition and perhaps exploring the processing more. Up to 3 from 2.
