Well, it rained for 40 days and 40 nights, which isn't long when you consider it had to cover all mountains which includes Mount Everest which is 5 miles high. So, once everyone and everything was dead the flood went down, which took approximately 1 year. After that there was a lot of mud and nothing much else. So it took a while to grow stuff to eat and for the animals to eat, so figure another year. So, that's two years and 40 days and nights.

There were pairs (male and female) of either two or seven of each kind on the ark. The Bible says they entered the ark in twos. Many aquatic animals would not have needed to enter the ark at all.

If the great flood had flooded the earth for 40 days and 40 nights then where did mankind go and how did they survive?

It may surprise, but there are two different stories about Noah's Ark in the Book of Genesis, skilfully conflated so that they seem to be just one story that is merely difficult to read. The author known as the Yahwist says (Genesis 8:6) that the Flood lasted forty days, but the author known as the Priestly source says that the Flood lasted a whole year. Either way, the stories agree that the only humans who survived were those in Noah's Ark.

What animal missed the ark and no longer exists?

We can either answer this from the Bible, from speculation or, finally, from science and history.From the Bible, we know God's intention because he clearly instructed Noah to take every kind of animal onto the Ark, and we know that Noah did exactly as told. The Bible says (Genesis 7:8-9) that two of every clean beast, two of every unclean beast and of everything that creepeth on the earth went into the Ark. There is no room in this passage for any animals not to do so.Some have speculated that the unicorn missed the ark and no longer exists, although in fact it is an entirely mythical animal.From a historical and scientific perspective, there never was a great flood that covered the entire world, causing the extinction of all animals that did not go onto the mythical Ark. If there was no biblical Flood, then there was no Ark and no animal that missed the Ark.
