Schneb, you do realize your explanations are intellectually dishonest?
Chapter2 clearly states animals were createdafter man, quit being daft.

Let me first commend you for trying to do the research on your own. Many people have so many questions about religion and Bible verses but never ask, figuring that they shouldn't ask questions, or that the answer isn't important. You've posed a very good question.
The first account is constructed chronologically, divided into six consecutive “days.” The second is written in order of topical importance. After a short prologue, it logically goes straight to the creation of Adam, since he and his family are the subject of what follows. (Genesis 2:7) Other information is then introduced as needed. We learn that after his creation Adam was to live in a garden in Eden. So the planting of the garden of Eden is now mentioned. (Genesis 2:8, 9, 15) Jehovah tells Adam to name “every wild beast of the field and every flying creature of the heavens.” Now, then, is the time to mention that “Jehovah God was forming from the ground” all these creatures, although their creation began long before Adam appeared on the scene. (Genesis 2:19; 1:20, 24, 26).

Animals but some may argue man is an animal
Thinking about your question that you answered yourself so well. Is this the only point Creationist and Evolutionist agree on ?

Genesis 2 is a recap--a synopsis. It does not mean it is suppose to be chronological.
