Thanks for avoiding the question pal.

It's impossible because to do this Noah would have to travel the whole world which at the time was not possible, whilst bringing 2 of each animal along with you and feeding them for the whole ride. Thousands upon thousands of animals. (some of which live in areas that are inaccessible without modern equipment, some are hybrids that you would have to find in very small biomes , some cannot be touched because of poisons they have all over their bodies, you could go on and on)
Not only that but he would have to construct a ship that has housing for each of these animals, lizards and amphibians need certain lights to have chemical reactions in their body vital to their survival (turning vitamin d into D3 I believe is the main concern, they can develop digestive and bone density problems fairly quickly)
You would have to deal with pounds and pounds of animal excrement that contains viruses that, at the time, had no cures and could be fatal.
You would have to make sure the larger, aggressive animals (rhinos for example) have barriers between them and other animals that could withstand the charge of a 3 thousand pound pissed off bulldozer.
Some animals require constant moisture to survive, like water buffalo and amphibians, in the event of a flood that covers the earth, there would be nothing but salt water and these animals would die out.
These are just some things I can think of off the top of me head.
Also, I have a question. If Adam and Eve were the first 2 people, and the only 2 people at the time, and they were the source of the total human population we see today, after they had children, wouldn't their children have to reproduce through incest? I mean there aren't any other families around. Just the one.
