He didn't. He fit two of every animal in an extremely huge ark. And back then two of every animal was a small amount because mutations didn't occur among the animals making the many subspecies we have today. We'd only have one type of ape, one type of duck, and so on.

Have no clue how he fit them into an arch.
But the boat he build called an ark, according to the Bible, was 300 cubits by 50 cubits wide by 30 cubits high. As a cubit is slightly smaller than a yard, the boat was about 900 feet long (compares the the Queen Mary II - the largest ocean liner today - at 1,100 feet). The width was 150 feet, and the height 90 feet. That's over 12 million cubic feet of space. You will get quite a few animals in that.

He also built a ray gun that shrunk all the animals and the food necessary to sustain them so that two of every species on the planet would fit into a boat the size of a small cruise ship. The ray gun was made so that it would reverse it's self when the animals were exposed to sunlight.
It all makes perfect sense if you know what REALLY happened.

Do you even know how big the ark was, and how many animals Noah had to bring onboard? Do you know how big the average size of the animals were? What ages did they have to be? You don't? Do some research. I've provided a link to guide you. Hope this helps!

This is not a literal story it is a metaphor to help explain a moral tale, Noah didn't really build an arch because Noah didn't exist.

Noah's Ark was taller than a 3-story building and had a deck area the size of 36 lawn tennis courts. Its length was 300 cubits (450 feet, or 135 meters); its width was 50 cubits (75 feet, or 22.5 meters); it had three stories and its height was 30 cubits (45 feet, or 13.5 meters).

he made the largest animals eat the animals smaller than them, and by a miracle of god, no animal was digested in the process...noah's ark is scientifically impossible, that amount of water doesnt exist on the planet to raise eustatic sea-level so high (if all the ice melted into the ocean sealevel would raise only 1800 feet, mount ararat over 10,000 feet above sea-level)........

Noah's ark was a huge structure. He included animals of every general species, and it is not impossible at all.

The Ark was big enough to carry around 16,000 varying species of paired animals.
