No, but what he did take on the ark were infant animals, which included dinosaurs. Which is easier and feed and care for, a baby elephant or a full grown one? More room also for extra animals.

Interesting theory! But don't baby elephants, or for that matter pretty much any mammal, require a mother (ie. adult) to survive?

Good point ... perhaps he should not have said "infants" ... but rather "not adults."
