TO THINK THERE'S A LOCH NESS MONSTER

I really believe there's something undiscovered in the 23 mile pitch black Loch, Too many people have seen SOMETHING. Over 1000 sightings. Okay dome could be the mind, tricks of the light, logs, seals etc but surely not all. No it can't be a plesiosaur as the loch is only 10,000 years old and they died out millions of years ago. Sonar and DNA proved there isn't one but doesn't it connect to the sea? So it could come and go and not be in there permanently. Adrian Shine who has camped there 40 years and Jeremy Wade both think it's a huge Greenland shark. Giant eel 20ft long? The most dna found was from eels.

@Ilovemyshed
As they were circus elephants, maybe they were on stilts.

The episode of 'The Parapod' about the Loch Ness Monster is a classic, probably their best episode.

I remember back in the 70s there was quite a bit in the news about it. Peter Scott (v well known TV naturalist / wildlife painter who seems to've been forgotten in recent years) suddenly came out, announced the evidence had convinced him, and then produced his own painting of what he thought the monster would look like. Basically a pleisiosaur). He even suggested a proper latin name which was something like Neserites rhombopax. Can't remember exactly.

A few days later someone pointed out that his proposed latin name was an an anagram of "monster hoax of Sir Peter S"
