An non-believer in the Bible answered:
Nothing, the whole myth is nonsense. Unless all the animals and species lived within walking distance of Noah's boatbuilding yard.
Response:
The animals could have been heading to the ark long before Noah was even given the command to build it. Also, according to the theory of Pangea (all the continents existing together as one super-continent before drifting apart), it would have been possible for all living creatures to be in one spot and then move to other continents. Perhaps the flood set into motion the process of this happening.
If there was an ark, then it was built like a box and not like a ship.
When the rain came down, the water went up, and the Ark floated like cork. It did not flashed down the river and did not sail the sea. When the water came down, the ark landed flat on its bottom. It did not land on rocks and mountains, and did not brake apart and spilled the content.
According to the Bible - Genesis 8:
After the flood the earth was desolate and Noah and his 3 sons (and their wives) rebuilt civilization. Read all about it on genesis-8
Myth? I love the big bang theory Myth as well!
The eight of Noahs family escaped the flood the rest of mankind died.
the raven probably got drowned , and died.
There were two arks , Noahs ark and the ark of the covenant.The ark of the covenant was to carry the ten commandments. Today, the ark is a cabinet in synagogues, normally at the front of the sanctuary, where the Torahs are kept.

The first time that Noah sent it out, the dove simply returned to him in the ark. The second time, the dove came back with an olive leaf. The third time, it did not return, giving evidence that it was possible and safe for Noah to leave the ark. (Genesis 8:8-12)
According to the Holy Bible, Noah's Ark landed on the Mountains Of Ararat in Turkey. Contrary to popular opinion, this is a mountain range not a single summit. Blessings !
