None. All animals went in by two by two on the ark. That is how we have the animals we do today. All of the animals on the ark were boy and girl. They had children, their children had children and so on. So, if it did not go on the ark, it wasn't an animal at the time. Maybe, something like a Zebroid* didn't go on the ark, but a zebra and horse hadn't mated yet. So the is all animals went on the ark.

*Yes a Zebroid is an animal, it is half horse half zebra. It came to be by a zebra and horse mating. It looks like a horse on half of it's body (the front side or backside of it). And the other half looks like a zebra. I am sorry that I can't attach a link to show you. But you can also just Google Zebroid or half horse half zebra for more info on Zebroids. (It is pronounced Z-broy-d)

Possibly you are thinking of the 'clean' animals which went in by sevens. There have been various interpretations of this. The most likely would seem to mean three pairs and some have suggested the seventh was for a Thanksgiving sacrifice once Noah and his family left the ark (or possibly for meat or both). Thus, this seventh animal was the 'odd one out' and would have been 'unpaired.'

Obviously, as some think, if it was seven pairs, then all these would have been in pairs with none left out.

Thus, these animals, which also frequently overlap with the domesticated animals which were to be useful to man post flood, were needed in greater numbers and so more were taken, however you interpret it.

In line with the above there would have been many animals which did not then exist until they diversified post-flood under the selection pressures of the radically altered environment. These animals were only figuratively on the ark in terms of the gene pool of their ancestors.

A:From a literal point of view, every animal that became extinct in prehistoric times did not go into the ark. That would include thousands of kinds of dinosaurs, both large and small, and thousands more of ancient amphibians, although The Bible clearly says that Noah was instructed to take every kind of animal onto the Ark. Noah was not instructed to take fish onto the Ark, so it is somewhat surprising they survived the long period of the Flood.

From a scientific and historic point of view, no animal went onto the Ark, because there never was a great, worldwide flood and there was no Ark.

According to Biblical mythology, God told Noah to collect two of every animal, male and female. God also instructed Noah to collect seven pairs of every bird and clean animal, and on pair of the unclean animals. No animal was banned from the ark.

Noah's ark held over 4000 animals. Each animal had a male and female from each species. The only animals that did not enter the ark were animals that lived in the water.

Fishes weren't mentioned as going into the ark. Only birds, mammals and reptiles were listed as going into the ark, in Genesis 6:20-21, 7:14-16.
