Counts are platform-account follow relationships, not unique people: one person can follow several of these accounts, and the totals are not an audience size.

The exact Facebook integers come from each Page’s public og:description metadata; the screenshots show the rounded public headers. Public metadata can be cached and is not an authenticated platform export.

Instagram values are rounded public headers (396K and 210K). The approximate figure adds their nominal values and is not exact; Instagram metadata on the same pages showed 397K and 211K.

Accounts linked only from the WAE Facebook Pages were excluded because no direct WAE source confirms them, and YouTube subscriber counts are excluded from follower totals.

Point-in-time readings captured between 2026-10-20T22:52:50.732Z and 2026-10-20T22:55:19.477Z on 2026-10-20 (UTC); follower counts change continuously and later readings will differ.

The record covers accounts of the five publicly named WAE brands only; it is not a total for every account WAE operates.

Screenshots are viewport captures by an AI browser agent without the address bar; capture times come from the capturing browser’s clock, not signed platform timestamps. Two YouTube captures that showed a signed-in session were withheld; no follower figure depends on them.

The 3,000,000 lower bound uses the minimum values consistent with Instagram’s rounded headers (395,500 for 396K and 209,500 for 210K, the round-to-nearest worst case); the exact Instagram counts are not established by these receipts.

Revision 2 raises the quantity from the revision 1 wording "more than 2,500,000" to "more than 3,000,000". Revision 1 bounded the figure by the seven exact readings and left the two directly WAE-linked Instagram accounts out of the bound because their headers are rounded; revision 2 counts them at the lowest values their headers allow, so the figure stays a floor, not an estimate. The exact subtotal of 2,556,117 is unchanged.

The exact integer readings of the seven accounts sum to 2,556,117; recomputation delta against the receipt total is 0.

Adding the nominal Instagram header values 396,000 and 210,000 gives approximately 3,162,117 across nine accounts; recomputation delta is 0.

A rounded header "N K" is consistent with a true value of no less than (N − 0.5) × 1,000 when the platform rounds to nearest, and no less than N × 1,000 when it truncates. The minimum values consistent with the two Instagram headers are therefore 395,500 (396K) and 209,500 (210K); with the seven exact readings (2,556,117) the nine accounts total at least 3,161,117, more than 3,000,000 under either rounding rule; recomputation delta is 0.

Instagram’s own og:description metadata on the same pages showed 397K (Deep Ocean World) and 211K (Wild Animal Encounters), and the Wild Animal Encounters page title showed 210,959; each value lies above the minimum used for the lower bound. The lower bound does not depend on these values.

The header values visible in the seven screenshots alone (1.5M, 973K, 44K, 6.3K, 3.5K, 9,235 and 7,277) sum to 2,543,312, above 2,500,000; each Facebook og:description integer lies at or above its displayed header, consistent with truncated display.

Revision 1 (2026-10-21) stated "more than 2,500,000" platform-account followers, bounded by the seven exact readings alone. Revision 2 raises the stated lower bound to "more than 3,000,000" from the same receipts by adding the minimum values consistent with the two rounded Instagram headers; no reading, receipt or account changed.

An authenticated, platform-native follower reading (for example a Meta Business Suite account export) for the same date is not established in the kernel.

How many distinct people follow these accounts is not known; platforms do not publish unique-follower counts across accounts.

Ownership of further accounts that are linked only from the WAE Facebook Pages (Instagram, TikTok and YouTube candidates for three brands) is not established.
