Question[]
If Nessie does exist is it possible that he / she is the ghost of a Dinosaur rather than a living one?
Possible Answer A: Ancient indigenous tribes arround the world told stories of wise beings not only among humans, but among every living species. These creatures became after dying, or better said transcending, in powerful spirits capable of taking physical form from time to time, if a warning were needed to humans or to another living members of their species.
Possible Answer B: An alternative explanation to Loch Ness creature is that of swamp faring invertebrate. A mollusc like a sea slug, sea worm or a primitive form of squid known as tullimonstrum. The invertebrate theory could explain why there are no sonar reads of the creature, as above examples could attach to the lake bottom, being taken as the lake surface. Decomposition of dead individuals should also be quicker, do not leaving skeletal remains.
