There is evidence of a flood where "only essential animals were saved?" What does that even mean?

Saw it either on the History Channel or Discovery. Saved
mostly farm animals. Unlikely the flood lasted 40 days.
More like one or two weeks.

I'm sure there have been plenty of floods in the Middle East over the last 2000-3000 years. I'm also certain that people got in boats to save themselves and their families (and maybe even some of their livestock). The problem is that the average fundamentalist christian doesn't realize this is where the story comes from -- they believe that the WHOLE WORLD was flooded BY GOD, and that Noah and his family plus two of EVERY animal were all that were saved.
These are the people that Lebowski is referring to.
