As I understand it, some creationists say that the Ark didn’t have every species, but had two of every baramin, i.e., a “kind” that were the ancestors of more than one contemporary species. I don’t understand how one baramin could turn into multiple species except by... evolution.

In Genesis 7:2-3 God instructs Noah to take into the Ark seven pairs of every "clean" animal. So there would have been 14 cows, 14 sheep, 14 goats, 14 ibexes, 14 American buffaloes, 14 cape buffaloes, 14 water buffaloes, and so on. The Ark would have been very crowded, indeed.

Genesis 7:2-3

“Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate,

and one pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, and

also seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air—male and female—to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth.”
