I can't find examples either. I imagine it's unpopular because most of these people are inerrantists and so can't deny that Noah obeyed God in taking two of every animal that breathes through nostrils.
I would be on the side that says they'd already died out, if it were me. Or, second best, that they took eggs and God told them which were male and which were female. If you're going to make stuff up, why not make it a less ridiculous mental image?
I did not look for it when I posted the above. But I did a quick search since reading your reply. In the comments section at this link:

I think the dinosaurs were all wiped out by God, during the flood.
