Zoo pictures are very difficult to do.  To get a clean shot without the background or in this case the foreground elements is not easy.  And, of course, the animals don't always cooperate.  Your choice is to have a lot of time to wait for the animal to get to a spot where you can make the environment look natural or do a tremendous amount of post processing to eliminate the cage.  Most of us are not lucky enough to live where they live in the wild so you'll have to spend some time perfecting your zoo shots.
