Although this theory was considered by Mackal, he found it less convincing than eels, amphibians or plesiosaurs. However, Rines countered that when rearranged, the letters could also spell "Yes, both pix are monsters – R. Earthquakes in Scotland are too weak to cause observable seiches, but extremely massive earthquakes far away could cause large waves.

This sighting triggered a massive amount of public interest and an uptick in alleged sightings, leading to the solidification of the actual name "Loch Ness Monster. On 27 August 2013, tourist David Elder presented a five-minute video of a "mysterious wave" in the loch. He interviewed as many witnesses as possible, including the Spicers, and investigated various theories for the sightings, such as the idea that the monster was a prehistoric creature, or perhaps a normal sea animal that had swum into the loch by accident. There's a lot of history to this and there's also a lot of scientific method involved, that this creature could still be out there. Though later revealed as a hoax, this image fueled the mania surrounding the sightings, and is used on the dust jacket and as the frontispiece to Gould’s book.St Columba is said to have seen the monster in 565AD but thereafter for a thousand years Nessie was left in peace to swim freely in the Loch or, as she was said to occasionally do, roam among the hills! I've never given much credence to the chupacabra, Bigfoot, the Pine Barrens Jersey Devil, UFOs, Atlantis or Mormonism. He sold the first photo to the Daily Mail, [46] who then announced that the monster had been photographed.

A crossover sequel with Alten's Meg series, Vostok, was released in 2015, with a further crossover occurring in Meg: Nightstalkers in 2016. It is often described as large in size with a long neck and one or more humps protruding from the water. The reality is that it's a type of fish that's pretty menacing and has just grown very large for scientific reasons. Some believe it to be an earlier, cruder attempt at a hoax, [47] and others (including Roy Mackal and Maurice Burton) consider it a picture of a diving bird or otter that Wilson mistook for the monster.The society's name was later shortened to the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau (LNIB), and it disbanded in 1972. Complete with engaging anecdotes, interesting sidebars, and fantastic illustrations, kids won't want to put this book down! In response to these criticisms, Tim Dinsdale, Peter Scott and Roy Mackal postulate a trapped marine creature that evolved from a plesiosaur directly or by convergent evolution.
