How many species did Noah save?
Previous research has suggested that there were approximately 35,000 species of animals which would have needed to be saved by Noah, enabling the students to conclude that the dimensions given in the Bible would have allowed Noah to build an ark that would float with all of the animals on board.
What happened in the story of Noah’s ark?
Noah was instructed to build an ark, and in accordance with God’s instructions he took into the ark male and female specimens of all the world’s species of animals, from which the stocks might be replenished. Consequently, according to this narrative, the entire surviving human race descended from Noah’s three sons.
What dog breed was on Noah’s ark?
Afghan Hound
In legend, the Afghan Hound was the dog rescued from the great flood on Noah’s Ark. Afghans are also referred to as the King of Dogs due to their elegant manner and majestic coats.
What did Noah take with him on the Ark?
Noah was also to take “every sort of food” for his family and the animals. When the Flood came, all animals not on the ark died, and after the Flood, “all the animals and all the creatures that move along the ground and all the birds . . . came out of the ark, one kind after another” “so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful.”.
How many species of insects could have survived on Noah’s Ark?
Many of the one million species of insects could probably survive without being on the ark. While God told Noah to take two of every kind of animal into the ark, He clarified his instructions so that the animals should be two of every unclean animal and “seven of each kind of clean animal” and “seven of each kind of the birds of the heavens.”
How many animals did Noah need to save?
Noah was to take seven of every clean animal—“a male and his female”—two of every animal that is unclean, and seven of each bird, male and female “according to their kinds… to keep the species alive on the face of all the earth.” That woodpecker has to stop!

How can we prove how Noah did something?
No one can prove how Noah did something. They can just show it was possible to do something. Most answers come from those who believe an ark full of animals was saved from a global flood that destroyed the earth. They have to defend their position and show something was possible.
