Description

The Loch Ness Monster, or “Nessie,” is a legendary creature reputed to inhabit Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. Often described as a long-necked, hump-backed creature resembling a prehistoric plesiosaur, it has over 1,160 recorded, unverified sightings. Despite popular lore, scientific evidence is absent, with many famous, early reports, including the 1934 “surgeon’s photograph,” revealed as hoaxes.
