I had to look closer to see this.
What you would want is what they call 4X4 welded wire mesh galvanized.
Also you can look at field fencing.
The stuff you would use for small animals is called hardware cloth.

I bought a roll of the 60" X 100' welded wire roll from Tractor Supply and cut it into 10' lengths. Hubby ran the fence down the center length of our 4' X 10' beds, attached to 3 t posts. The fencing does not run along at ground level, but about 1' up the posts, making the fence able to handle the taller indeterminates. So far, not a sign of rust nearly 5 yrs later. They stay up through the Wisconsin winters, but I figure I might have to treat them at some point. Anyway, its a great system for tomatoes, melons, squash, cucumbers, peas...anything that climbs.
