I said 70,000 critters...the same as in the article.

The Titanic hit an iceburg...it didn't fail in itself.

I’ve read estimates that as few as 16,000 animals may have been all that were required due to natural selection.

Either way sure sounds like they had plenty of room. The average animal sizes were estimated to be about the size of an adult sheep so the larger kinds were fewer and disproportioned to those smaller than sheep.

Another poster mentioned animal waste being a problem, but I’ve read where the rainwater and/or crude water pumps could keep the place clean and tidy and possibly even used animals to power the pumps.

Regarding the Titanic didn’t the captain ignore iceberg warnings and command excessive speeds for the claimed ‘unsinkable Titanic’?

- sure sounds like pride to me. but ymmv :’)

There are loads more problems to overcome than either you or the article have postulated.

Here’s a website that explains how modern science could be mis-reading the evidence from the past.

Here’s another link to make you think. All too often we all are forced to swallow the long ages theories regarding geology and starlight yet if you apply critical thinking

I’m sure you can find many varied and myriad problems for long ages of critters roaming the Earth [i.e. scientists fearing the lunar landing getting swallowed up in several feet of moon dust that turned out to be a few inches].

Many ignore Einstein and gravitational time dialtion when postulating long ages for starlight too. Simply saying modern science often rushes to conclusions before clearly stating their assumptions first.

No scientist can claim to follow the scientific method when trrying to re-create long ages of history. Just how would those experiments work?

Unless you consider that the rudder was undersized.

In hindsight - a massive engineering over-site...
