Eamzy: Made more sense of the instructions.

Goal of the game: 
Have the lowest points after three rounds; alternatively the game ends someone scores 26+ points

Round goal: 
Empty your hand of point animals(ones with the water drop symbols)

Cards:
The cards have an image of an animal, their gender, weight, special abilities and point value(if any) listed

Player turn: 
*First, play an animal card to the location that the Noah marker is on, as per the rules of card placement below.
*Then move Noah according to the symbol in the top middle of the card
*If you play an animal of the same species as the top card on your ark, immediately take another turn after moving Noah

Rules for card placement: 
*Cards placed on arks must either all be of the matching gender or alternate back and forth between them.
*All cards have a number printed on them indicating their weight, ranging from 0 to 10.
*The Arks have a typical weight limit of 21, unless modified by the wood pecker card (which lowers the weight limit to 13)
*The Ark departs when it reaches its EXACT weight limit, and those cards are discarded.
**You get the bonus of giving away one card to an opponent per ark that has been completed this round.
*If you are unable to play a card, you must instead take all the cards from that Ark into your hand, then play a card onto that Ark.

*The round ends when a player has emptied their hand of cards. Points are calculated by how many water drop symbols are on cards remaining in a players' hand.

Animals with bonuses

*Lion : Steal a card from another player
*Giraffe : look at any other players hand
*Snail : choose gender when played
*Woodpecker : lower weight limit
*Mule : Don't move Noah
