could someone do a graph showing the results?

Looking through all the top fives and honourable mentions and rankings, Bongos are definitely rated as the number one/most favourite the most (surprising nobody). Gemsbok are second, which thought is cool to see (they're so beautiful); then Indian Antelope/Blackbuck, then Greater Kudu (Saiga rate highly too, most especially when counting the honourable mentions of them). Sitatunga, Addax, Arabian Oryx, Giant Eland, Sable Antelope, Nyala, Klipspringer, Bontebok and Zebra Duiker, Lesser Kudu, Gerenuk and Nilgai, have all considerably high rating count also understandeably (with many others liked Red-flanked duiker, Yellow-backed duiker, many Gazelles, Chiru, well you can all imagine). So cool all the incredible antelope species in the world. (When ranking them all equally though then Greater Kudu and Giant Eland's numbers go up even more as well as many others; equal as in each listed antelope's ranking as 1).
