There
are thousands of reported sightings of sea monsters in deep waters from
Siberia to Scotland. The most famous of all is the Loch Ness Monster,
whose existence presumably started 1500 years ago. Many eyewitnesses
described it as having a long neck, eel-like head, loathsome texture,
rounded-off tail, blunt nose and flipper-like legs. Unknowingly, the
adorable pet name, Nessie, was given to the Loch Ness Monster.
