Well, maybe it's just me, but I can see their data being posioned by checking different numbers to see all animals :)

Data brokers do not seem to care if their data is poisoned. That's their customers' problem! Their customers don't have any way of validating it, so there's no incentive to care. Haven't you ever received spam that was based on some extremely spurious connections?

I did that too but the first number I inputted was my percentage. I'd say most people would do the same thing.
