You have no problems with God being powerful enough to flood the world, but you get hung up on the logistics? If He can flood the planet, He can handle the animal problems as an afterthought.

I don’t believe the Lord flooded the world, so I am consistent. I believe the Lord is powerful enough to do whatever he wants, but I don’t buy that he flooded the world, or the Ark saved every land animal, or that Jonah spent time digesting in a whales’s stomach and popped out whole, or people turned to salt. I think they are great stories with great moral meanings. I don’t take the old Testament too literally.

We all believe what we believe. All I did was do a reality check on how realistic it would be for Noah to save all of the world’s animal species on one boat, when there are literally hundred of thousands of land animal species.

I leave it to others to explain how this is realistically possible, beyond the “God can do anything” reason. Yes he can. Now if he left it to one man’s family to get it done, then how did that man’s family get it done?
