Hi Dredge,
You sure dredged one up here. pun intended.

Genesis 1 describes how God created creatures "according to their kinds".
Lets get the facts straight.
In Genesis 1:1 God created the heavens and the earth.
In Genesis 1:21 God created the sea monster. (Prepared for Jonah).
In Genesis 1:27 God created mankind, male and female.
There are no other creation events in Genesis.
The creatures you are referring too was called forth after their kind. Which had already existed, as they were formed from the dust of the ground in Genesis chapter 2 and had perished prior to Genesis 1:2.
I could be wrong but I don't think anyone will claim that a new kind has began to exist in the last 6,000 years that was not engineered by humans.
To not derail this topic if you wish to discuss what Genesis states about creation I would be glad to oblige you and participate in such a thread. All you would have to do is start one and notify me of its existence.
God Bless,
"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."
