The people who replied to this question saying God could do anything, Well why didnt he stop the 2 planes going into the trade centre and why did he allow the notion of paedophiliea, and one more thing, if jesus came back to feed the 5000, why dont he come back again and get his lazy *** to africa and sort out the famine.

What do you think Jim Darwin had to put the animals into the ark??? God gave Noah the power, what kind of God do you think he is, he is the one who made the world, and he can't keep the animals quiet for a while. I hardly think that Noah went all over the world and selected the animals. They came to him.. Daniel came out of the lion's den without being eaten. Jesus raised the dead. We are not playing in the minor league as the primate people. God will bring to pass everything that he has promised and more.

It has been suggested that Noah took infant animals. If that is the case, he must have taken them when they were old enough to survive without their mother's milk. At any rate, an infant tiger would be manageable (sort of!!) for the length of time they were trapped on the ark. Noah may have had his hands full, but he had some help from his three grown sons.

Simple, God led the aniamls to Noah and the Ark. God was much more interactive back then and could make aniamal head to a single location and survive without distroying each other, Maybe why so many anaimals hibermate now.

It took noah many years to built the ark and people thought he was crazy projecting a flood that had not OCCURRED yet....also, they thought he was crazy for saying a voice told him to build it...but, he got the last laugh when he survived it...my question is, WHERE WAS THE BATHROOM, since they were stuck on it for 40 days and 40 nights???

you've got to remember it was a GIANT boat, also he had help from God, ( and that was probably the main reason), i have also wondered this, but really, i'd rather worry about the present than the past, i think that all that i wonder will be answered in the end

It is understandable that this question might arise, for as things stand now many animals do kill one another for food. But please note that this is as things stand now. Is there anyone on the earth who can say from personal observation how these animals acted six thousand years ago?

Throughout the earth humans kill animals and eat their flesh. But does man’s ability to chew and digest meat prove that all men eat meat or that men have always eaten meat? No, for God’s Word, the oldest and most reliable history of mankind, shows that originally Jehovah gave man “all vegetation bearing seed” and “every tree on which there is the a fruit of a tree bearing seed” as food. It was not until over sixteen hundred years later that God permitted a change of diet for man, allowing him to hunt animals for food.—Gen. 1:29; 9:2, 3.
We must keep in mind that scientists are limited in their knowledge. Even if a man is an authority in some field of animal life, he does not know all there is to know about an animal as it now lives, to say nothing about how it lived thousands of years in the past. T hose who are humble and sincere admit this. The very fact that scientists have different opinions proves the point.

For instance, the question came up as to whether cobras can hear sounds. On November 27, 1968, an Associate Curator of Reptiles at one of the large zoological gardens in the United States wrote: “All snakes are unable to hear sounds; this also includes the Cobra.” That seems quite final. However, on the very same day the Curator and Chairman of the Department of Herpetology at the American Museum of Natural History explained: “It has been generally assumed . . . that snakes are deaf to air-borne sounds. Recent evidence has it, though, that some snakes can hear low-pitched sounds. How this relates to the cobra problem is uncertain. The weight of evidence is still in favor of the theory that it is movement rather than sound that influences the cobras, but the matter certainly is not closed.”
The Bible long ago indicated that the cobra hears the “voice of charmers,” but could refuse to listen just as a human can refuse to hear. (Psalms 58:4, 5) Would it be wise to reject what the Bible says just because some scientists think the facts to be otherwise? The above quotations show that the answer is, No. Similarly, that certain current evidence does not seem to support what the Bible says about animal life in the past should not cause one to reject God’s inspired Word.

Another thing, is one justified in concluding that the way an animal uses its body today is the only possible way? As an example, a tiger uses its fangs and claws to catch, kill and tear apart other animals. Yet, could not these same fangs and claws be used in tearing apart heavy vegetation and ripping off husks and shells?

‘But what about poisonous snakes?’ someone may ask. Animal poisons might appear to be just for killing or protection, but are they? In “Animal Poisoners” H. Munro Fox wrote: “In some cases we know that poisons play a role in the functioning of the body of the animal which manufactures them. In many instances this may be the real raison d’être [reason for existence] of the venoms, quite apart from any protective value. The poisonous spittle of snakes, for example, has work to do in the digestion of the snake’s food.” Another illustration is a certain green marine worm that is partly covered with a poisonous slime. Is this poison to protect it from being eaten? It might seem so. Yet if the young of this worm settle on this slime, the poison changes them into microscopic males instead of the large females they would have developed into if they settled on the sea floor.

It is true that hundreds or even thousands of problem cases might be brought up, ones that apparently indicate that animals always killed one another, that this is necessary for the “balance of nature.” But should our lack of complete knowledge of God’s creation cause us to lose faith in him and his Word? Should we let questions about preying animals prey on us?
The Bible explains that in the paradise in Eden God gave to “every wild beast of the earth and to every flying creature of the heavens . . . all green vegetation for food.” (Genesis 1:30.)

Later all of the basic kinds of land animals lived in Noah’s ark for a whole year without devouring one another. And evidently drawing on the conditions that existed in Eden and that will be restored in the future, God’s Word says: “The cow and the bear themselves will feed; together their young ones will lie down. And even the lion will eat straw just like the bull. And the sucking child will certainly play upon the hole of the cobra . . . They will not do any harm or cause any ruin in all my holy mountain.”—Isa. 11:7-9.

Surely the grand Creator who made the heavens and all that is in them, who arranged the perfect balance and order of the stars and who knows how harmony and peace existed in Eden, can restore paradise conditions. Bringing about a “balance of nature” wherein animals do not kill one another is not beyond His ability, is it? So, let us look forward to that time with confidence and trust.

Certainly, Almighty God has the power over His creation, including the animals, to make sure that no harm comes to any of them nor to humans. One example of this can be found in the Bible in regards to Daniel. God stopped the mouths of the lions when he was thrown into the lion's pit. (Daniel 6:22; please see also Hebrews 11:33.)
