There are things that we don't think about until we are forced. I don't know that over ever thought much about the systems and intelligence that was needed to make the ark work. Feeding thousands of animals, watering them, removing waste, living for a year in an enclosed space.

Visiting the ark takes you to a place to think back to what it all must have been like. The pushback and mocking Noah must have experienced.

The images we grow up seeing of the ark are cartoon, oversized animals, in a small boat. Not reality. But it goes with the story right? Maybe that's why we never stop to think what it was really like.

It was neat to read the biblical references and artist interpretations made to complete the scene of what the Bible doesn't say. Dinosaurs on the ark, juveniles and small versions of animals versus full grow animals. Not ever version of every bear, etc.
