I know there are Dino-era survivors, such as turtles and crocs, and I tend to beleive Nessy more than Bigfoot. I have heard of underground caverns where its possible a group of animals could live.
Here's my issue, an animal that size would have to eat alot, and if there's more than one, than would the lake be enough to support it? I don't see how. And at some point some clear evidence would get seen, surely this animal would be used to human presense by now and wouldn't always be so allusive.
And the last thing is how long the legend has been going on. Unless its immortal or incredibly long lived, it would have to leave some remains at some point. And why isn't there and poop or any other biological DNA washed up on shore by now? (like after birth stuff, or pee, or flakes of skin. Something).
To the person that said bones sink and will never be found..Thats assuming the body dies and decomposes so fast that the bones have time to sink. A dead body would float on the surface and likely wash up on shore, be eaten by scavengers and decompose for a week or more before bones would start to get pulled back into the lake. By that time I'm pretty sure someone would find (or smell) its rotting corpse.

I don't know if the loch ness exists, but there is a lot of sighting of a similar creature in Lake Champlain that scientists have made underwater recording of an unidentified creature and descriptions are very similar to the loch ness so based on that I'm sure there could be.

Bordering New York and Vermont and known as America's Loch Ness, Lake Champlain is home to a monster named Champ. Experts use the latest technology in an attempt to prove the existence of this giant, sea serpent-like creature.

I believe Nessie exists. The Loch is close enough to the sea that she could get out if she needed. Also - the density of the lake makes it impossible to tell if there is something down there. And if one did die, then the bones would sink and never be found. There are just too many people who have seen the creature for it to be made up.
Also, there are other sightings around the world. For instance, Champie in Lake Champlain. There's also one in South America, but the name escapes me. It's interesting to me that they seem to appear where the land masses would have been connected a long time ago. I think they are an ancient species. Of course some people won't believe until one plops down in the middle of their living room...

Nope.
The claims of a sea monster there go back for over a hundred years. For that to really happen, you'd need a breeding population. That means enough creatures to have at least a chance to avoid inbreeding for a little while.
To do that, you need room for them to spread out and hunt for food. The whole lake is only 22 miles long, and less than 2 miles wide at the widest point. Much of it is less than 1 mile long. That's not a lot of room for a pack of whatever kind of creatures that are claimed to be here.
If they're living and breeding there, they are also dieing there. Yet we never find corpses. Why is that? We find corpses of whales washed up on beaches now and then. Fish also. Why not here?
If there are tunnels, where do they go? According to google earth, it's about 5 miles to the open sea. Do you claim that air-breathing animals can swim 5 miles underwater? Or do these tunnels go to secret lakes back in the hills that nobody knows about? Never mind that satellite images can show these lakes, and that people have lived in the area for centuries.
How is it that all the search expeditions have turned up nothing? Despite underwater cameras, sonar, search boats, nets, etc, they find nothing?
Who has something to gain by perpetuating the myth of the creature? The local people, maybe? Motel/hotel owners? Boat rentals? Tour operators?
Open your eyes, and consider the evidence critically. Don't give in to wishful thinking, or you'll so gullible that you'll fall for every ****-and-bull story that ever comes along.

Nessie isn't a creature, yet a inhabitants of fairly secretive Plesiosaurs. they're pertaining to to reptiles, no longer dinosaurs and that they seem to be a carnivorous aquatic genus that have existed because of the fact the Jurassic era. human beings think of they died out for the duration of th ok-T extinction, yet they do certainly thrive interior the depths of the Loch Ness.

The Coelecanth was thought to be extinct and it's alive and kicking... er... swimming today. Scientists had thought the coelacanth had died out with the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period some sixty five million years ago.
So I try to keep an open mind about lake monsters or any kind of cryptoids. Ya never know.

I believe that there is something there. They have proven that Nessie isn't a carnivor because there isn't enought Plankton in the water and with out Plankton there worn't be bigger fish and with out bigger fish the even bigger fish won't surive so if Nessie did exist then he/she would have to be a Herbivor. But there is definantly something there and yes Iknow it's a myth but so was the Silver Back Gorrila and there are hundred of types of fish that we haven't discoverd yet so why not Nessie?

Absolutely. I completely believe that something is there, although I don't know what. I am sceptical of all the pictures and projections made around the pics but with all those sightings I do believe that something is there and we prob haven't found it as there are so many places it can hide/live in. I'm also really glad that he/she hasn't been found as we would only destroy it with tests!

Eccles.
As a nature lover it would be great to know that they really exist. Imagine if they were still around?. A prehistoric entity in our midst. My worry is that someone will just have to catch it, take samples, hide it in some remote location and feed us a lot of bulldust about it. Humans have this propensity to fiddle with things that are best left alone. I really need to get off this planet.

Monster is SINGULAR. If there was one there would be another to keep the species going, and we would hear and see the splashes of tiny flippers on the loch.
