Ok, I should point out now that I don't think Pat wrote the bible, so really this is all purely for sake of argument.
Animals are mentioned in the bible a lot, sure, but AFAIK there are no passages that are all animal, that humans didn't interract with. It's tough to connect with something like a dinosaur, unless you can turn it into a cartoon and dumb it down with endless personifications, and since the overall message in the bible is the more important thing, why risk alienating people in the name of historical accuracy?
