There are stories among the ancients of floods. Looking at wildlife in Australia and Europe compared, for many thousands of years, they don't have a common origin. There is the account of polar ice cap melting thousands of years ago, which could have been rapid, and led to flooding. But the idea the mountain tops were covered as in Genesis is seems unlikely. A mixture of rain and ice melts may have made local floods. Woolly Mammoths are still found in polar ice. There must have been a big melt before the freezing encroached back on them?
