I would love for the loch ness monster to exist... it is a landlocked lake and has been for a very long time. it is very deep. A famous photo was taken underwater which depicted a huge shovel-like fin exactly like a plesiosaur. I still live in hope.  |

Heya CF,I once lived in an area of Coloradr that was famous for its Big Foot sihgtings.For a species that supposidly didn't exist, there was sure a lot of paople comming to the area looking for him.Good observation btw, about the homoerectus species...I still don't believe that such humanoid creatures exist.What was the term for them?...the human race?...incredible! You have an insightful imagination,CF!Great post.  |

I got razed in chat once over the Lochj Ness monster thing. I believe what I believe because of the evidence that exists. In the case of the Loch Ness for example, find the description of a plesiosaur we long thought to be extinct. We know the plesiosaur existsed once because we have it's fossils. Why is it so hard to consider that there may be some still alive? What's the big deal? I think people are afraid to look stupid so they put blinders on and refuse to think outside the box.  |

In all fairness, if the loch ness monster existed, they would have found it by now. of course, the tourism the legend provides the area ensures that the "mystery" will continue. as for bigfoot, FAKE FAKE FAKE. do a search on usm, the guy who created the hoax died recently.  |

DP... I'm sorry but the world is not that simple, but you're a good example of what I'm talking about. Ignorance, willing or otherwise, is the basis for the views you posted here. First of all. The Loch Ness is very deep, cevernous, and with some of the murkiest water in the world. If there is a plesiosaur in the Loch Ness, then it's very possible that it can remain aloof. As far as bigfoot goes, the faked video you speak of is not the basis or primary evidence for the belief in this unknown creature. It comes from numerous plaster impressions collected over the past decades of footprints belonging to a yet unidentified species. There's nothing hoakey about the idea of their being an unknown very aloof speicies out there yet to be discovered.  |

No pacific soul, ignorance is turning your back on reason and logic and embracing fantasy and superstition. Is it ignorant to believe that a species the size of a man would have at least left a body or a skeleton of some sort, instead of just footprints? Is it ignorant to believe that seeing as every other species of the dinosaur-era is extinct it is almost certain that one group of plesiosaurs, small enough to remain undetected in a lake, could survive through ice ages and climatic changes for sixty five million years. I am afraid that when it comes right down to it, the world IS that simple.  |

DP, We're not talking about sketchy fantasy creatures like unicorns and talking dragons. In these cases, there is evidence. It is presumptuous to say that we have identified and cataloged every species out there... even the big ones. It wasn't until jsut a few years ago that the Dugong (sea cow), a prehistoric creature long thought to be extinct, was found still living in the Indian Ocean. These creatures existed all this time and yet there were No sightings, no recent fossils, no skeletons, or evidence of any kinds. In the case of the plesiosaur, there have been numerous sightings by a myriad of credible witnesses, a few photos, and even indications of the movement of large creatures in the Loch Ness from sonar readings. Does something have to be caught and stuffed in a museum before we even consider the possibility of it's existence? The Loch Ness is not the only place either. There is the creature of Lake Champlain in Canada, another group of sightings in Lake Tianchi in China. All of these sightings bear he same description. I don't know how to get around the evidence without considering the possibility that a species similar to a plesiosaur is still in existence today unless I simply ignore 'reason' and 'logic'.  |

I believe there are many creatures we haven't discovered. I do believe there is something to "Nessie" and the others. There have been too many sightings for too many years for it to be nothing. You're right that we think of them as monsters until we have proof they exist. It is pretty silly.  |

Well, author I don't believe that a plesiosaur or a large ape-like mammal are anything to do with the paranormal (an unsolved mystery perhaps) but since you asked, i enjoy this site because it gives me the opportunity to exchange ideas and argue with lots of people, just like i'm doing with pacific soul right now Pacific Soul, has it not occurred to you that Loch Ness depends on the legend for tourism? There's money to be made in the myth. You gave the example about the Dugong (although i believe there is a big difference between something in an ocean, and something living in a lake) but could you give any examples (particularly in relation to land creatures who have much less room to hide) about a creature that was previously thought to be myth, but later the legends surrounding its existence were prooved true?  |
