One teacher broke it down this way:
Species of Land Animals
larger than a sheep, 290
Between sheep and rat, 757
Smaller than rat, 1,359
Species of Birds
birds 10,000
reptiles, etc, 2,231
insects, 100,000
According to him there was room for all the animals in the lower deck which had 33,750 square feet of floor space which could have been partitioned off into stalls, cages, and rooms. The second floor could have held the food in its 500,000 cubic feet of space. The third floor also contained 33,750 square feet making room for over 200 rooms, each about 12 feet square.
