Loch ness monster.

In Scotland, England, there is a water area that has become a tourist attraction because of the discovery of unknown creatures-Loch Ness. Loch Ness was originally unknown, but since someone witnessed a huge long-necked monster on the lake, it has attracted many people from all over the world who have a strong interest in this long-necked monster to explore and investigate. With the improvement of its reputation and its excellent natural environment, it has also become a famous tourist and holiday resort.

1933 One day, two local residents of Loch Ness happened to see a huge creature rolling in the lake. After the incident was reported by the British media, it caused a sensation in the world media, and Loch Ness became the focus of global attention. Since then, many people have claimed to have witnessed the huge creatures of Loch Ness. So many people have investigated this, even caught it in the water, but the results are not very satisfactory. No giant creatures have been found or clearly proved in Loch Ness. The Loch Ness monster has become synonymous with unknown giant creatures. It has also become the most famous mystery in the world together with Bermuda's mysterious triangle, the Tunguska Big Bang, savage legends (including the snowman on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the savage in Shennongjia, Hubei, China) and the Egyptian pyramids.

Dr Wilson of Renton took a picture of the famous Loch Ness monster. The huge creature shape shown in his photos has become the representative of the Loch Ness monster-the most notable feature is its long neck sticking out of the water.

People who are willing to believe in the Loch Ness monster, including many mysterious zoologists, biologists and geologists, have many explanations for the unknown creatures in Loch Ness.

Many people think that this may be a prehistoric animal that has not been discovered before. This has never happened before. In the past more than a century, several ancient creatures that were once considered extinct in ancient times have been found on both the ocean and the land. For example, 1976 found a marine animal called the giant snout shark. People once thought it was extinct hundreds of thousands of years ago, but now we do find it still exists in the ocean of the earth.

According to the shape described by witnesses, many paleontologists think that this may be a prehistoric animal-plesiosaur's legacy population on the earth. Plesiosaur is a prehistoric animal contemporary with dinosaurs, and some people think that it became extinct hundreds of millions of years ago. Does it have any surviving descendants living on our earth? People don't know that there is another animal called the original whale. Its external image is like a snake, which is very similar to the Loch Ness monster described. Scientists believe that it died out 6.5438+0.8 million years ago, but it may still exist.

However, there are some unexplained problems in the theory that the Loch Ness monster is a prehistoric animal. Geologists have studied the geological causes of Loch Ness, and found that Loch Ness is located between two geological faults, which was gradually formed after erosion in each ice age. Every erosion made the lake deeper, and later it was more connected with the sea, forming Loch Ness. Geologists believe that Loch Ness was covered with thick ice during each ice age, and the surface layer was completely frozen. Under such cold conditions, only warm-blooded mammals can survive in large animals. However, the hydrological conditions of Loch Ness do not support this theory. The water in Loch Ness is very turbid, and the light in the water is seriously insufficient. So Loch Ness is lifeless, and there are not many plankton. Can such a large mammal survive in such an environment with insufficient food sources? So biologically and geologically, the Loch Ness monster can't be plesiosaur or other large mammals.

Another explanation is that the monster is another large fish in Loch Ness-salmon, and the largest salmon can be four to five feet long. It may also be sturgeon or eel that occasionally goes upstream from the ocean, and their individuals are very large. But witnesses don't accept these explanations. They firmly believe that what they see is not these fish-the shape of these fish is too different from the shape of the monster they see.

Many scientists would rather believe in the existence of the Loch Ness monster than make a clear investigation. Lines are one of them. He asked for help from the funds provided by enthusiastic people and made two large-scale scientific investigations on the waters of Loch Ness with advanced equipment. The last time was a few years ago. In this investigation, he used advanced sonar and underwater photography equipment to search the whole Loch Ness, hoping to find and photograph the monster with the help of advanced equipment. In this search, they found several suspicious large moving objects, but in the end, except one, they all had reasonable explanations. As a result, none of them were large animals. In addition, 1987, Loch Ness was scanned for the largest time in history. Only three large movable objects found in this scan have no reasonable explanation. In another scientific expedition that was not aimed at the Loch Ness monster, scientists also found a large moving object, which lasted about 7 to 9 minutes. But these movable objects, because under water, the river is muddy and no clear photos are taken, are unknown.

In fact, in the northern hemisphere, unidentified long-necked creatures were found not only in Loch Ness. Long-necked monsters have also been seen in Cape Lake in Russia and lake champlain in North America. But what needs to be told to readers is that the famous photo taken by Dr. Wilson in Renton mentioned above told the truth when he was interviewed in his old age: it was a fake photo he made to tease the British media who liked to catch shadows at that time. Even so, it is still a mystery whether there really exists an undiscovered large aquatic growth neck animal on our earth, just like the Loch Ness monster.
