This week we’re celebrating “Ark week” in honor of the eighth anniversary of the Ark Encounter. So today we’re answering the question, “how did Noah gather so many animals from around the world?”

Well, he didn’t! The Bible tells us the animals came to him. God sent them! But how did they come from places like Australia? Well, the world before the flood wasn’t the same as it is now. It was likely one continent, making it much easier for animals to travel to the ark.

And consider the amazing migrations of so many animals—they can travel huge distances so it’s not that difficult to apply that same ability to animals heading to the ark.
