Scientists have come up with a new theory arguing that the Loch Ness Monster may have been a giant eel.
About:
In Scottish folklore, the Loch Ness Monster or Nessie is said to be a creature that inhabits Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands.
It is often described as large in size with a long neck and one or more humps protruding from the water.
Since the 1900s, the legend of the “Loch Ness Monster” has been the subject of much debate around the world. In the absence of any conclusive evidence, there have been various theories about whether such a prehistoric creature ever existed, or whether it was an identifiable creature.
The scientific community regards the Loch Ness Monster as a phenomenon without biological basis, explaining sightings as hoaxes, wishful thinking, and the misidentification of mundane objects.
Recent Development:
Now, a geneticist from New Zealand’s University of Otago announced that an intensive analysis on traces of DNA in the Loch’s icy waters has ruled out the presence of large animals such as dinosaurs, but there was a lot of eel DNA in the Loch.
Thus, the Loch Ness Monster may have been a giant eel.
