"Explanations for the extinction of these giant reptiles include the
Flood. Noah probably took dinosaurs on the Ark, but they were babies for
safety's sake. However, after they got off the Ark, the bulk of the food
chain had been destroyed. Creationists assume the complete extinction of
land dinosaurs was a combination of a lack of food and a change in life
expectancy."

I think it is illogical for animals to die after the flood because of
inadequate food. That is saying God is dumb. Here God goes to great
lengths to collect animals, save them from water... then have them die
because of lack of food???

Then again, what food would there be for anything after such a
horrendous flood, which was so powerful it shifted the continents...
because later she also says (emphasis mine):

What about Continental Drift? I am sure everyone has noticed how Africa
and South America seem like they would fit together. There is a theory
describing one large land mass, called Pangea, that was all the earth's
land combined. Creationists believe this theory, as do evolutionists.
There are many different opinions about how the continents became as
they are today.

The theory adopted by most creationists is the Hydro-plate Theory. It
states that three large hydro-plates collided into each other at the end
of a global flood and broke into several smaller plates. The Bible
states that when the Flood came, the "fountains of the deep" spewed up.
Henry M. Morris gives a description of what happened during the Flood in
his book, The Biblical Basis for Modern Science: "This latter upheaval
must have been followed by the eruption of subterranean magmas, and
these by great earthquakes, and these by tremendous tidal waves in the
sea."

It was utter catastrophical destruction!
