   • To figure out when it was okay to get off off the ark; Noah sent out a raven to fly around to see if there was land. The first time it didn't bring back any leaves so he knew that everything was still underwater. Then he sent a dove who at first didn't bring back anything but then,7 days later, it brought back an olive leaf.
