Yes, the survivors are extinct, which kind of begs the question why they were lined up two by two if none of them could survive until the beginning of recorded history. It wasn't that long.

Before landing at Ararat, did Noah drop off all the Marsupials in Australia, then swing by America to let off the bison and other critters that couldn't reasonably be expected to swim the Atlantic? That seems to be a glaring omission in the account.

We have species on the brink of extinction today! ... Whats the difference whether they become extinct 20 years after the flood ... or 25,000 years after. I dont know Gods mind, maybe he didnt feel like re-creating them all again, he lets species become extinct today.

As far as Australian animals, some creationists support the idea of a single land mass until the flood/post flood ...

Anyway, why would a Jewish writing which documents the events in the history of a middle eastern nation and people mention anything about events in Australia, or North America?

Do you think most Christians think every question in life is answered in the text of the Bible?
