Add 10,000 for the future species we might find. This gives a total of 41,600 species. Times two equals 83,200 animals. At 21" per cubit, gives an ark of over 2 million cubic feet. More than enough room.
I see you've ignored my questions about why kangaroos are only found in Australia (and how they got to Austrailia in the first place), and how Noah managed to feed the koala bears when all they eat is eucalyptus leaves.
Okay, let's take a look at these numbers.... According to you, there were 83,200 animals on the ark. The ark contained 8 people. This means each person had to care for approximately 10,000 animals. And by "care for", I mean the animals needed to be fed, watered and had their living spaces cleaned out. Assuming this was all done once a day, this means that each person had to care for 416 animals EACH HOUR. This is nearly 7 animals a minute, or one animal every 8 1/2 seconds! Can you feed, water and clean an animal's living space in 8 1/2 seconds? And this leaves zero time for the people to take care of their own needs!
NOW do you realize how unbelievably stupid the ark story is?
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
