Why did Noah put only two of each animal on the ark and how did he keep them from mating?

Because God told him to put two of every 'unclean' beast but sevens of all the beasts considered 'clean'. Also the birds were represented in sevens. As for the mating we aren't told but there's no reason why they wouldn't have. Two Genesis 6:19 Of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark. Genesis 7:8, 9, 15 Of clean beast and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowl ... there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God commanded Noah. This verse, God commanded Noah to take both clean and unclean animals in pairs. Seven Genesis 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take thee by sevens, the male and his female. Note; Seven is an odd number and cannot be a pair. There will one odd animal left behind with no pair. More than likely these were used for sacrifice after the ark landed on dry ground, as at this point mankind had not been given permission to eat meat.

Did noah really take in a pair of each animal?
In Genesis 7:2-3 we read, "You shall take with you 7 each of clean animal, a male and his female; 2 each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female; also 7 each of birds of the air, male and female, to keep the species alvie on the face of all the earth.Now to the 'really' part of your question, IF you believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God and Son of Man and never sinned, then read Matthew 24:36-39 where He compares the Flood of Noah to how people will be surprised at His return. Since that would of been a lie if untrue, it would have broken the 9th Commandment and our future would be unsaved. It is up to the reader to decide if they have faith or not.
