Noah was told to take kinds onto the ark. One kind of bear can produce several types depending on adaptation.

Peace!
Where did all the water go after the flood? Noah and the flood is a Near Eastern myth picked up by Jewish writers after the exile. It is a parable.
There are many things in the Bible which are not meant as teaching. They were put there for historical, cultural, geographical or poetic reasons. The important thing is the revelation. The Bible should be read in the same level it was written - spiritual. If you read it critically or literally you will not get God's personal message to you.
God bless

Well, they must have!! However, prior to the Flood, they must have walked from the Arctic to the Middle East; I think that Noah did not pick them up! Doesn't your question cause you to wonder how literal really is the biblical tale of Noah's ark and the flood?? Re: the "one kind of bear" solution; doesn't such a concept preclude some sort of evolution having followed the flood??

No. Bears can swim. They just tread water for 40 days.
Either that, or the ice just didn't melt and continued to float on the raised water level.

And the llamas to the Andes.
And the Koalas to Antartica.
And the Bison to North America.
etc, etc, etc.
All without leaving one fossil out of place along their way home. Geepers!

at least they have some decent legs. What of the poor insects?
Or 925,000 couples of insects actually since that is how many species of insects there are. That must've been a tough search.

It's called Natural Selection, and there was just one type of bear at that point in history.
