don't teach two of every animal: ark

There is this ignorant view that two dogs, two cats, two giraffes, two etc of every animal went onto the ark,
scripture does not say that,
it says,
7 pair of clean animals, for example 7 pair of sheep, 7 pair of cows etc
and 2 pair of unclean animals, eg pigs etc
and 7 pair of birds, 7 pair of doves, 7 pair of kingfishers, 7 pair of storks etc.
People get the idea because
its a male and female so they assume its only one pair of a male and female so
they put two and two together and get the wrong answer.
And often its sunday school teachers trying to get kids to see pretty pictures that are
scripturally inaccurate, then those kids grow up with a false impression which is then
taught as a mythical fantasy to atheistic society.
