The following other items are taught by Rabbinical commentators:
1) None of the animals mated or ate one another.
2) Gog, the giant, hung off the back of the ark, hanging on and swimming while his giant eye looked in
3) A cat scratched a mouse and Noah sewed it up and that's how the mouse got his whiskers.
4) There were 2 of all non-kosher animals and 7 of all kosher animals. That's a lot of beef!
5) Noah wasn't that righteous, he was only better than the rest of the evil in the world.
6) Noah invented wine, hence the forbidden fruit in the garden of eden must have also been a grape (in Hebrew a grape grows on a eitz, or tree) - gets you into trouble.
There's more, but that's just off of the top of my head.
Where was all that food stored for those thousands of animals? I wonder how much pool they generated, and how they got that problem taken care of.
Oh, and just to let you know, it's one of those stores that true believers sort of joke about, but won't dismiss. "What do you mean they didn't mate?" "God didn't let them" "How did you fit a couple of thousand species in there, with 7 kinds of kosher ones?" "God made it work out." "Are you telling me that Gog was like King King size?" "Of course." /head_bang
