technically, an animal can get carbon from any of these.
Carbon is present in all living things so if a shark ate a fish, they ate carbon. If a bear ate salmon, they ate carbon. If a cow ate grass, they ate carbon. As for the antelope, carbon dioxide has been found to be present in water as a dissolved gas.

If I were you I would probably go with the antelope though.
