Kinds = Clades
These threads are fun to watch ...
​
Let me just plant the flag of reason again, while I'm thinking of it, and point out that the thing in science that best corresponds to the Biblical concept of "kinds" is the clade.
​
Clade - Wikipedia
​
Regardless of what changes they go through over time, all creatures reproduce after their clade. All birds are dinosaurs, no rodents are birds; sugar gliders are not bats, but whales are fish (as are we.)

Have fun!
