Transcript

Many people wonder: “were dinosaurs on the ark?” Well, Genesis tells us that Noah took two of every kind of land-dwelling, air-breathing animal on the ark. Since dinosaurs are land-dwelling and air-breathing, they came to Noah to go on the ark. But how’d he fit them on board?

Well, the average size of a dinosaur is only about the size of a buffalo. Many dinosaurs were actually quite small. And, for the really big ones, Noah could’ve taken young adults with him. They’d eat less, take up less space, and reproduce better. So, it makes sense God would’ve sent juveniles to Noah.

It’s no problem explaining dinosaurs on the ark!
