Nessie is not the only monster hiding in big lakes on the planet
A fisherman called Teddy Tucker found the remains of a bulky object of biological origin on the beach of one of the island in the Bermudas in 1988. After examining the find, experts concluded that the creature was 75 m long at the very least.
Bruce Robinson, head of the Oceanographic Institute in California, took pictures of real monsters during his research trip onboard the one-man submarine. The photographs show a few deep-water eels measuring about 40 meters.
There are some mysterious creatures living in bodies of water surrounded by land – if the reports in the press are credible. Below are the geographic locations of “still waters” that run deep:
- Lago Blanco is a lake in Chile. According to numerous eyewitness reports, it still has a large prehistoric reptile.
- Lake Waitorec is located in Australia. Local residents claim they repeatedly saw a large unknown creature in the lake.
- Lake Manipogo is in Canada. The locals reported an unexplained monster seen on location.
- Lake Kol Kol is located in Dzhambul region, Kazakhstan. According to popular beliefs, the “water spirit of Aidakhara” lives in the depths of it. Local shepherds repeatedly saw a giant animal dragging poultry and livestock into the water. A. Pechorsky, a regional specialist, maintains that one day he saw a strange creature as it surfaced from the depths of the lake. According to him, it looked like a giant snake measuring above 15 meters, its head is said to be one meter wide.
- Lake Labynkar is in Yakutia, northeastern part of Russia. According to numerous eyewitness accounts including those reported by helicopter pilots, a giant creature hides in the lake, which is ice-clad for the most part of the year. Locals repeatedly spotted large tracks near the unfrozen patches in an ice-covered surface.
By and large, there is still not a single piece of irrefutable evidence indicating that the above cases are something else than a hodgepodge of fish stories, rumors and speculations, to say the least.
We believe the reports on the catching of Nessie that made the headlines as the movie dinosaurs were riding the crest of their popularity should be filed under the same category.
Loch Ness monster is a mystery that has to be unraveled in the foreseeable future. We wish it could be solved in our time. The Loch Ness mystery has been around for more than 60 years. Despite the fact, there is not much information available on the subject. Loch Ness is a lake in northwestern Scotland, near Inverness. It is 23 mi. (37 km) long; maximum depth is 230 meters. Loch Ness monster is a large aquatic animal resembling a serpent or a prehistoric reptile, reported to have been seen in the waters of the lake. It has not been yet proved to exist. According to local authorities, there have been more than 4,000 sightings of the monster since a road was laid in the vicinity of the lake in 1933. There are hundreds of files containing eyewitness reports, dozens of photographs (which may vary in terms of reliability) including underwater footage and assorted readings of echo sounders showing one or several long-necked reptiles seen in their entirety or in part. Several records proved to be phony. The area of the lake is most likely to be a somewhat typical example of an anomalous zone rife with other abnormal phenomena. Numerous sightings of UFOs shaped like an iron were reported far and wide in 1971. A number of underwater expeditions using state-of-the-art equipment and specially trained dolphins have been carried outover the last few years. A research team headed by Dr. McAndrews combed the entire lake using an ultrasonic direction finder for the first time in the summer of 1992. As a result, at least five large live creatures were discovered in the course of research. Those creatures are thought to be giant dinosaurs which somehow managed to survive from the prehistoric time.
I. Boozer who photographed Nessie using laser equipment shares the opinion. He said that the reptile caught on his camera was “extremely smart.” Back in 1969, researchers used Pisces, a submarine equipped with a sonar screen, in an attempt to find the monsters. One more submarine called Viperfish was used at a later period, but to no avail either. The submarine dubbed Time Machine has been used in the research since 1995.
What conclusions should we arrive at?
First and foremost, we should bear in mind that actual events may bring about a response by virtue of newspaper and magazine articles, books, and sci-fi thrillers. A response can work both ways. At times the people can see things that resemble those seen on TV or in the print media.
And we should also take into account the following point of utmost importance: photographs and video footage have ceased to be a reliable piece of documented evidence due to super computers capable of creating any images and mock-ups for various purposes. The point should never be overlooked since we live at a time when more than 90 percent of information is obtained by means of newspapers, magazines, and TV. Another problem is a matter of trust. In other words, are we supposed to buy anything we see on TV? On the other hand, what kind of evidence are we talking about with regard to the catching of Nessie? Are we supposed to hunt it down and send its stuffed body on a world tour or what?
