Remember, not all animals needed to be full grown, not every variation of every genus. Also remember that not every variant of every genus was required onboard as their variant species would be produced over the years There is a man in Holland who made a great replica of the ark and he answers some of you question how it is possible, There are many videos on it (one is a 20 series and it answers much) the food, the waste etc, animals, the size which houses thousands and thousands of animals. .
It's really amazing this man did this without God's original blueprint. He added some things for tourism . Look at some of the rooms.
IF you take the time to study a little on this (maybe with this aid) you can see how much was possible-more than you seem to be able to picture right now. A deeper study wouldn't hurt. And remember God had a strong arm in the original ark and animals.

Understand that not EVERY animal on earth was crammed into the boat. There has been adaptation (note I don't say evolution, just modifications to the physical traits) to many species, giving us varieties that we didn't necessarily have access to back then. Just as how we keep discovering new strains of flu every year.
As for the aquatic life, I would assume he didn't gather them since the flood would do them no harm and the receding waters would be gradual enough to prevent sudden suffication of thousands of fish. Obviously if God has the power to summon a giant flood, I think keeping animals from attacking one another and keeping them fed supernaturally is entirely in the question. I know of many birds that can fly and will fly during a storm, whether they want to or not, they weren't necessarily inside the ship, there was the upper deck and not ever bird had to be on the ship or in the air at the same time.
It's a process we can't comprehend, but it's got a meaning behind it. God has the power to take away life and give life.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
