Seems you've been sadly misled,
Viz! The fiscal facts of this monstrous absurdity are there for all to see, and I for one hope to see it collapse in shame, as soon as posible (in order to limit the educational damage after all...) since the individual stories can be so very eaily disassembled on so many levels.

Heck, baby-schmaby. Try to add in the weight of a pair of full blown Apatosaurs (each weighing about 35 - 38 tons, or 78,000 pounds
EACH; let's see: a pair of those massive dinos (very
hungry dinos btw...) = X 2 = 156,000 lb. Not to mention all the reproductively doomed pairs of each of the other 3000 to 6000 species of dinos!
I mean, any biologist or reproductive ecology specialist knows that, given a mere
pair of
any species, that species would be completely insufficient to then go on to initiate, starting out on a frozen mountain icefield no less... an entire reproductively secure population.
In reality we'd really have to have a minimum of 100
Apatosaurs, half male, half female. Heck; there's now only ≈10,000 cheetahs left in their very suitable native African habitat, but those in the know say we need to have at least 15,000 unmolested cheetahs just to
maintain a stable population. Holy crowded Ark, Noah!
The Ark, taken literally as so many do, with all it's so very vapid and absurd, is a pathologically sad commentary on the education levels and ability to think reasonably by all those visitors plus the folk who continue to believe in this stuff...
So Vizio; do indeed save your sheckles and
git on out there to reinforce your faith. Perhaps by trying the Heavenly Zipline ("Screaming for Jesus!") and dancing under those colorful Chinese dragons. ("Say! Ain't the chineses mostly Buddhist? Or atheist?")*
At least these ardent apologists are consistent, but then, their stories can't change anymore, as has been noted above. They are stuck with re-chanting the same'ol, same'ol silly stuff, all of which has been buried in logic and evidence.
