A world wide flood would have resulted in brackish water, neither fresh nor fully ocean salty. Whay are you suggesting otherwise? Kind of a no brainer there Linda. another obvious answer item.


anyway, haven't read the rest, just hopped back because I wanted to mention in the above post that drought, not flood conditions, kill more parasitic insects than anything else. In a flkood rats, parasitic insects, they do catch rides on floating debris and eat the dead stuff without flinching. Pterodactyls too btw.

Maybe that is why God told Noah to stay in ark for so long after the flood. The earth was probably crawling with vermin for awhile until things dried up a bit.
