Description

Numerous legends say that a prehistoric plesiosaur inhabits Loch Ness, a deep, murky lake in Scotland. In Loch Ness Monster: Fact or Fiction?, follow cryptozoologists as they study the scientific evidence for and against the existence of Nessie and her relatives around the world, including Champ in Vermont's Lake Champlain and Canada's Ogopogo in British Columbia. Learn about the many realistic explanations--such as wave patterns, tree trunks, otters, water birds, and hoaxes--for the majority of eyewitness accounts that have surfaced over the years to decide whether Nessie lurks in Scotland's most famous lake.
