To begin with animals did not kill and eat other animals. In the beginning nothing ate meat. God did not allow it. Not until after the flood when all the vegatation was whipped out did God allow man and others to eat animals.[b]"the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered." (Genesis 7:19-20)
Fifteen cubits above the mountains the waters went not just fifteen cubits. [/B]
I think you're wrong; Noah and the Ark story can long after Adam & Eve were exiled from the Garden of Eden. Death and sin had already entered the world by the time of the Flood, so you are reaching here, nay grasping.
