Clean animals
Leviticus 11:2,3 defines clean animals as those that chew the cud AND have a divided hoof, which also seems to be all the horned ones.
The problem of what the predators ate when they got off the Ark extends to the insectivores. I wonder what the anteaters would do after they had eaten the two off the Ark! For that matter, was Noah allowed to take more than two ants on to the Ark to feed them on the voyage?!

Which animals
With the carnivores eating all the herbivores and the insectivores all the insects and then all dying out, what could survive are the fish-eating birds, waders, and similar, provided they could dodge the carnivores and raptors. And maybe we could have the sea iguanas of the Galapagos which eat seaweed. This assumes that the fish have not been killed by salinity alteration during the Flood.
