Transcript

Have you ever heard someone claim Noah could never have fit all the animals onto the Ark? But, actually, this would’ve been no problem for Noah. The Ark was much bigger than most people think. When families visit the life-size Ark at Ark Encounter, they’re surprised by how huge it is!

Also, Noah didn’t have to take that many animals on board. He only needed to take two of every kind, not species. And he didn’t need fish or marine creatures. Noah probably only needed about 1,400 animal kinds. That’s less than 7,000 animals total! There was plenty of room on board the Ark!
