maybe he did take them on board, the scriptures dont go into that much detail. And as for you unbelievers, when your all laying on your death beds or at your parents funerals then we'll see who does the praying

You mean and leave the guys behind?? No cause the lil ones could be female. They had plenty of time to get pregnant on that boat, plus some may have been pregnant, just says 7 cpl of each clean and one cpl of each unclean animal if I remember?? . Hmmm let me think.. Well no, no way of telling they were or were not pregnant.//
Love

Noah's ark was a myth, based on measurements in the bible it would have been similar in size to the 'Titanic'. Being made of wood it would have collapsed under its own weight. Most of the creatures that were to travel on the ark weren't even known in those days.
The story is based on a Syrian cattle trader who was swept out to sea in a flood.

Noah didn't exist. There was no ark full of animals.
Hypothetically though, the animals wouldn't all be pregnant for the duration of the trip.

Noah was simply advised by health and safety experts at the time, that it would not be sensible. They would require specialist care and probably one of those intercom systems that you have to listen to babies crying. In those days, the technology was simply not available. I hope this helps

Have you actually read the story in Holy Scripture as to the number of animals that were taken and why?

Think about the work, mess and fuss of all those animals and many giving birth on the ark!

to have a large enough gene pool to allow a species to survive you need at least 12 members of the same species and hopefully from all differant families

God loaded the ark, Noah and his family were already on the ark. God spoke to the animals and they loaded themselves.

Because then there would be no males, no sperm and all the next generation of animals would be very, very incestuous. Resulting in deformity and the demise of animal-kind!!!
