How did "Noah" manage to get American bison, grizzly bears, kangaroos, Alpacas, African elephants, etc. etc. to the Middle East in time to board and how did he get them back?
There is no stopping an asshole who wants to believe such sheer nonsense.
If you want a comparison search out a fundie message board site and see how long they tolerate you no matter how pleasant you are.

Quote:2. Gathering the Animals
Bringing all kinds of animals together in the vicinity of the ark presents significant problems.
Could animals have traveled from elsewhere? If the animals traveled from other parts of the world, many of them would have faced extreme difficulties.
* Some, like sloths and penguins, can't travel overland very well at all.
* Some, like koalas and many insects, require a special diet. How did they bring it along?
* Some cave-dwelling arthropods can't survive in less than 100% relative humidity.
* Some, like dodos, must have lived on islands. If they didn't, they would have been easy prey for other animals. When mainland species like rats or pigs are introduced to islands, they drive many indigenous species to extinction. Those species would not have been able to survive such competition if they lived where mainland species could get at them before the Flood.
