If you had a zoo would you continue bringing in animals if they had no space left to live comfortably?

Likely you would call that inhumane, you wouldnt say they were being intolerant of the new animals if they did not.

People aren't zoo animals.

So cram them into substandard housing because they deserve less rights than animals?

You're not offering a tangible answer here, the argument is situational similarity, not ontological equivalence.

And you think telling immigrants they're not allowed to enter the country gives them more rights?

We don't have open borders, so we already do disallow entry. We just used to match it to capacity, which is what I'm saying is logical to do.
