The Loch Ness Monster

Loch Ness is located in the Scottish Highlands. It is the largest fresh water lake in Great Britain. Reports of there being a large creature living in the lake have been documented since as early as 565 AD. Even so, modern day interest in the Loch Ness "Monster" didn't come until July 22, 1933, when George Spicer and his wife saw "a most extraordinary form of animal" cross the street in front of their car near Loch Ness. There exists photo, video, and even sonar evidence of the creature, but none of it is conclusive. Some believe that the Loch Ness Monster aka "Nessie" is a myth; others that it is a surviving plesiosaur from the Cretaceous period. From time to time, different people and organizations attempt to solve the mystery, so perhaps we will one day know the truth behind Nessie.
