The ecosystem was sealed off from water from theoutside. I'm willing to bet money that there was water inside the cave from the time before it was sealed off.

The date on it seems to be a rough estimate from when the Mediterranean Sea extended to that area. They are apparently reasoning that it must've been from that time, because they are sea organisms.

So given the normal scientific understanding, its 5Ma or whatever. In a creationist understanding, nothing can be older than 6,000 years, so the sea must've extended to that part of Israel before 6,000 years ago. Or, some might claim, these were animals left 'high and dry' by the receding waters of the "Great Flood".

Basically there isn't any evidence that can contradict creationism.

The cave was completely sealed off from the world, including from water and nutrients seeping through rock crevices above.

Wow. Now thats some bad science writting. Heck thats just bad writting in general. Perhaps its largely lifted from a jewish source and roughly translated??
