 5 - Fifth Day: God creates underwater creatures and flying creatures with the ability to procreate with their kinds. - GENESIS 1:20-23

6 - Sixth Day: Land animals, both large and small, are created. The sixth day culminates with the creation of the first human couple. - GENESIS 1:24-31

Genesis 1:20-27 state that fish, birds, land animals, and finally humans were created. Scientists believe that the first fish appeared long before the first mammals and that humans appeared much later.

"Considering the brevity of the Biblical narrative, the match between the statements and timing in Genesis 1 and the discoveries of modern science is phenomenal." -Gerald L. Shroeder, physicist.
