2. Presentation
The Loch Ness Monster, Nessie for her close friend, is a cryptid, [Cryptids are creatures presumed extinct, hypothetical species, or creatures known from anecdotal evidence and/or other evidence insufficient to prove their existence with scientific certainty] claimed to inhabit Scotland’s Loch Ness, the most voluminous freshwater lake in Great Britain.
Here is the Loch Ness lake
Pleaase.. Here it is.

3. Hoax or monster?
The most famous picture of the loch Ness monster, taken in 1933, is in fact a fake… Dr Kenneth Wilson confessed just before his death that it was a hoax.
Several engineer and scientist did expedition to search Nessie, Tim Dinsdale, an aeronautical engineer did 56 expeditions between 1960 and All of the pictures on which he was sure to see Ness, have been described as simple boat’s pictures.

4. There are several theories about what Nessie could be.
She could be a plesiosaur, which is a long-necked aquatic reptile that is defined as extinct. One important thing, apart from the disappearance of this race, is against this hypothesis: the plesiosaur was probably a cold-blooded reptile requiring warm tropical waters, while the average temperature of Loch Ness is only about 5.5 °C. And even if the plesiosaurs were warm-blooded, they would require a food supply beyond that of Loch Ness to maintain the level of activity necessary for warm-blooded animals
Here is a drawing of two pleisiosaurs.

5. Nessie could be a long-necked seal
Nessie could be a long-necked seal. Several scientists supported this theory but however, the seal are actually visible on land during daylight to sunbathe, and Nessie was never known to do that.
But there you need a little bit of imagination…

6. She may be a giant eel. Scientists believe that an eel might have grossly enlarged in order to eat the bigger fish, or that a larger eel species could inhabit the loch. But, once again, a detail destroy the theory, eels are not known to protrude from the water as described in some sightings.

7. Yes, it is a false, thank you..
She could be a giant invertebrate, and cited the extinct Tullimonstrum as an example of the shape, but this hypothesis hasn’t been accepted by a lot of people as it is simple speculations.
Yes, it is a false, thank you..

8. For some reasons that i’ll tell you one other day, i didn’t find any photograph… so let me show you a picture of holidays.
[my favorite one] Nessie are associated with the old legends of kelpie, which is a supernatural and fantastic water horse from Celtic folklore that is believed to haunt the rivers and lakes of Scotland and Ireland. It generally has grayish black fur, and will appear to be a lost pony, but can be identified by its constantly dripping mane. Its skin is like that of a seal but is deathly cold to the touch. A scientist claims that the accounts of loch monsters have changed over the ages, originally describing a horse appearance; they claimed that the "kelpie" would come out of the lake and turn into a horse. When a tired traveler would get on the back of the kelpie, it would gallop into the loch and devour its prey. This myth successfully kept children away from the loch, as was its purpose. [it was nice, ha?]

9. Conclusion
Rumours of a huge animal living in the loch have existed for centuries – since 565. Some believers have argued that a lengthy history of monster sightings in the loch provides evidence of the creature's existence but it may be an invention.
Some sightings are cases of misidentified deer or boat wakes, and of course, there have been several hoaxes. There are some sightings, however, which cannot be easily explained.
As a conclusion I’d say that if you want to be convinced, I let you go to the Loch Ness lake and see by yourself if the big shape moving under water is, or not, the legendary monster.
Actually I’d prefer to stay there in safety, with this little doubt inside my head…
