Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out by families from the ark. And the Bible also gives us a definite clue that this wasn’t the case.

For example, skeptics often say that the meat-eating dinosaurs (and other carnivores) released from the ark would have soon eaten up the limited number of other animals available, leading to the extinction of all of them in short order.īut this falsely assumes that (1) the only sources of meat available to the newly released carnivores were the other animals that disembarked, (2) there were only the same number of creatures that got off the ark that went aboard, and (3) all the animals were released at the same time.īut none of these was necessarily the case.įirstly, although there are no real specifics as to which creatures were released in what order or exactly how long it took until the very last animals exited, logic dictates that simply opening every pen door and sitting back and watching utter mayhem ensue likely wasn’t the way the animal release would have taken place (though God could have controlled this as he did the embarking). Many arguments against the aftermath of the flood account pose supposed problems with food supply. For example, how could plants have survived the flood to feed the dinosaurs and other creatures, etc.? So let’s explore the question, “How could dinosaurs have survived after leaving Noah’s ark?” Wouldn’t the Animals Eat Each Other? In this part, we’ll begin dealing with questions regarding what happened after the flood.įor example, objections are often posed against the Genesis flood account surrounding the sheer possibility of survival in such a devastated landscape. In Parts 1–5, we discussed several questions regarding the logically derived biblical reasons for believing that dinosaurs were onboard Noah’s ark and then dealt with several logistical questions surrounding the feasibility of just eight people caring for all of these creatures.
