The cleverest creationists don't deny the historicity of dinosaurs; they simply argue that they were alive at the start of the Flood. (What happened to the dinosaurs after the waters receded is another story.) but as you mentioned, at that time, God sent dinosaurs of lesser size, about the size of a Buffalo. Or who knows, he may have just taken eggs and only two, at that. So it is not unreasonable to say that Noah had small dinosaurs in the ark. The closest examples of dinosaur-like creatures in that day, are translated in most Bibles as “serpent,” “dragon,” “Leviathan,” “Behemoth,” and “sea monster” (Job 3:8, Job 40:15-24, Isaiah 27:1, Ezekiel 29:3, etc.).
This article is from The Washington Post:
Did dinosaurs exist during Noah's ark?
This article has been updated to clarify that the Ark Encounter says dinosaurs were saved by Noah's ark from the flood described in Genesis. In fact, dinosaurs died out 66 million years ago. Folks who identify as “creation scientists” have no problem with the notion that dinosaurs once roamed the Earth.

You put up articles and quotes from Ken Ham. Are we to assume, you are simply showing us more of his stupidity, or are you implying that you believe that there were in fact dinosaurs on Noah’s ark, and you believe Kenny is giving your belief credibility?
If that is the case, you failed miserably.
In case you haven’t noticed, Kenny’s boat don’t float. Neither could Noah’s.
Ham had to install a modern ventilation system in the thing, just to let people in, let alone dinosaurs and other animals. He had to re-enforce the whole thing with steel to keep it from falling down.
Even if Noah could fit only half the animals inside, they would be dead in a few days. And not even god’s word could save them.

@GodSpeed63 You're not making any sense but besides, there isn't any research to do. The logistics of it all makes absolutely no sense.

I did some research. The dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years before the biblical date of Noah's birth.

"Alice laughed. 'There's no use trying,' she said. 'One can't believe impossible things.'
I daresay you haven't had much practice,' said the Queen. 'When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.'"

Wikipaedia is your friend, and will help you to find [b]reality[/b]
[i]Wyoming[/i] was an American wooden six-masted schooner built in 1909.
With a length of 140 metres (450 ft) from jib-boom tip to spanker boom tip, [i]Wyoming[/i] was the largest known wooden ship ever built.
Because of her extreme length and wood construction, [i]Wyoming[/i] tended to flex in heavy seas, which would cause the long planks to twist and buckle, thereby allowing sea water to intrude into the hold. [i]Wyoming[/i] had to use pumps to keep her hold relatively free of water. In March 1924, she foundered in heavy seas and sank with the loss of all hands.

The Noah story simply illustrates the First Commandment (Exodus 34:11-16). Noah is the only main character in the Bible who did exactly as he was told to do without whining about it, although he was clueless as to how to do it.
In case you missed it, whch you did, all of the nations that existed when Adam & Eve were in the Garden of Eden existed without interruption during and after Noah's flood. The flood story is nothng more than a war story.

Can you give an example on one single person besides Noah and his kids and their descendants that lived after the flood?[/quote]
Read the fairytale and comprehend what you read.
The location of the Garden of Eden is described in Genesis 2:11-14.
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+2%3A10-14&version=TLB
Read that passage and think about it. Cities and empires existed at the time Adam & Eve were running around naked.
In Genesis chapters 7-9 the God character flaps his jaws with Noah and his sons. In Gensis chapter 8 the flood (the war) subsided. Noah sends out a raven (a metaphor for military action) Supposedly there were no hostilities but there was no real peace. He sent out dove (a peace symbol) but there was still fighting going on. A short time later he sent out the dove (the peace envoy) and the dove returned with an olive branch (a symbol of peace). After that there was peace once again in the area.
Genesis chapters 10 & 11 tell who were the daddies and sons. And, if you pay attention you will see that some of the places they went to existed before the flood (the war) and survived without getting flooded (invaded).

@Diotrephes I have no idea what you have read, but. Adam and Eve did not live in cities. They were farmers, and had many kids and their kids had many kids. After the flood, God tells us all of Noahs grandkids and great grandkids that came from his 3 kids. 10 chapters from Adam to when Noah exiting the arc with his 3 kids and their wives. The entire world have 3 ancestors. It is very clear and very short chapters.

I suggest you get a pen and lot of paper and read the fairytale very carefully and summarize every few verses in your own words. When you finish read what you wrote and see if you will have the same opinion you have now. Chances are you will be amazed.
BTW, all kinds of people lived in the Garden of Eden. You are just fixated on Adam & Eve because you have never read the fairytale.

You didn't read Job, did you? Read Job 40:15-24 actually read all these verses: (Job 3:8, Job 40:15-24, Isaiah 27:1, Ezekiel 29:3, etc.). The name, dinosaur was not used to describe the terrible lizards until the 19th century but the Word of God still describes them.
