 Only 188 railroad cars would be required to hold a pair of each of the 17,600 species of animals presently known to man, according to Dr. John Morris. (This number of cars includes food supplies for a year's subsistence)

I find that hard to believe ! 188 railroad cars to house 35,200 animals with a years supply of food. Thats 93 pairs of animals per railcar and food for those 93 pairs!! Unless we are talkiing insects, I'd say it's impossible !
