They are accepted as 65 million years old based on an evolutionary worldview of millions of years. Of course that makes sense to someone thinking like that. They would never think that the fossils were laid only a few thousand years ago as a result of a worldwide flood.

"Begging the question" ... hmmm, sounds like somebody has been studying "logical fallacies"? How am I begging the question?

It has nothing to do with evolution. The age of rocks are determined by radiometric dating which uses the ratio of isotopes in the rock itself to establish its age. It is completely independent of evolution or any fossils found above or below the rocks.

They would never think that the fossils were laid only a few thousand years ago as a result of a worldwide flood.

Just like astronomers will never think that the Sun orbits the Earth. It's kind of hard to ignore the evidence demonstrating that there was no recent global flood.

I can't read the names of the animals in your image. However, to come to the point, do you think that these animals form a temporal sequence, or do you think that they all lived at the same time?

Do you have any speciation where DNA information has been increased via beneficial mutations?

Information increases as a result of copying errors, where an extra chromosome or section of a chromosome is accidentally passed to the next generation. A common version of this in humans is Down Syndrome, where the person is born with a whole extra chromosome and has certain differences in physical and psychological traits than a normal person. It is not necessarily a positive or negative change. It is simply a change.
