Loch Ness is located in the North of Scotland and is one of a series of interlinked lochs which run along the Great Glen. The Great Glen is a distinctive incision which runs across the country and represents a large geological fault zone. The interlinking was completed in the 19th century following the completion of the Caledonian Canal.
For many years it has been supposed that there is a large dinosaur-like "monster" resident in Loch Ness. The evidence for its existence are a series of sightings of a plesiosaur-like dinosaur throughout the last 100 years. The case has occasionally been supported by indistinct photographic evidence.

However, several scientific studies have been conducted, including thorough sonar surveys of the loch, and these have not revealed any presence of such a "monster". Many people believe that the size (21 square miles) and great depth of the loch (almost 800 feet), together with potential underwater caves, gives the monster many places to hide.

Regardless of the truth, the suggestion of the Monster's existence makes Loch Ness one of Scotland's top tourist attractions.

Well.... do you believe?

I beleive. If a creature has lastest this long without being detected by scientists, then there is a good chance that there is such a thing. Maybe it is like the chameleon (sp?). It blends in with it's surroundings.

My logical part tells me that there is no such thing, while my fun loving making conspiracy theories out of everything part says that it is definitely possible. So I have mixed thoughts about this. :

I believe its possible.


Seventy percent of the Earths surface is covered by water so i believe that there are many undiscovered creatures out there
