A lot of the stories contained in the bible are a stretch to accept, in the story of Noah there were supposedly 7 or maybe more of some of these animals, the details contained in the text of the Noah story make it impossible to accept rationally, in order to accept the bible as literally correct, you have to put aside common sense and believe what you are reading without question... I do believe the faith some folks have in christianity enriches their lives a great deal and that is a good thing but I also believe it is a long way from reality.
