Not stated. There is no reason to assume that many species had not become extinct long before humans were created.

By the end of day six. I believe so.
Now you have to understand the problem here Neo. Not all Creationist believe the same thing. As far as I can figure RL, to whom I addressed the question, believes all life created was put on the Ark. Therefore all life created was still alive. I assume this because he says, as do other Creationist, that dinosaurs were on the ark.
Instead of addressing all problems I come across in the Bible I will concentrate on a few.
One, the Bible explicitly states the sun, moon and stars were created after trees and plants. Where is the evidence showing the sun, moon and stars were created after plants? Mind you this is, according to Christians, God writing this book of the Bible, not some drunken jerk-off being as how no drunken jerk-offs were yet created. So it could not have been the observers point of view as the only observer was God himself. Are you saying God didn't know the sun, moon and stars were created on the first day?
Two, If the entire earth was covered in water for a year there should be not vegetation on the planet. It would all be dead. I have yet to see a tree submerged in water for a year and come out looking like the trees in the Creationist paintings.
So, assuming all vegetation died, where did our present plants and trees come from? There is nothing in the Bible that says God commanded Noah to gather all the seeds and spores (don't forget mushrooms) and redistribute them to their proper location after the Flood.
Where is the physical evidence showing all vegetation on earth died at the same time?
Where did the water come from and where did it go? RL suggests that the present mountains didn't exist so it would not take as much water to create the Flood.
That doesn't wash with me. To flood the entire earth you have to have an outside source of water. If the source is from the heavens and not from the earth then where did it go? If Creationist say it went into the earth where is the evidence that supports that argument? Where is the evidence to support an outside source of the water? Where is the evidence to support the claim that all life was destroyed with the exception of one human family sometime between 4,000 and 8,000 years ago?
This thread is about Creationist presenting evidence to support their Bible stories. What I am asking is not supernatural. I want to see them present evidence to support their claims that certain events happened on earth.
I would like to see RL and you, if you choose to, present evidence to support your Creationist Bible stories.
