Aside about Loch Ness


Young journalists are generally not aware that giant eel-like animals have been sighted on Loch Ness for nearly a thousand years, by more than a thousand credible witnesses, beginning with Catholic priests who lived in monasteries on the edge of the lake in the Middle Ages.

The case is not closed on Loch Ness just because one photo was disproved. It does not explain all the sightings over the centuries. It did not all start with one photo.


Skeptics often skew the facts by saying there are not enough of a permanently food supply in Loch Ness to support giant eels. Skeptics also falsely assert that large scale sonor searches have never detected anything unusual in Loch Ness.

The facts:

1) Many of the large scale sonor searchers have detected large moving creatures deep in Loch Ness.

2) There are not enough fish living permanently in Loch Ness to support giant eels, but there are loads of large fish that pass through Loch Ness on their way to spawn in feeder streams. That's why people go fishing on Loch Ness.

There are always enough smaller eels to feed on in Loch Ness as well -- a situation that would have naturally given rise to a giant "super-eel" design.

If they ate migrating fish and smaller eels in the muck on the bottom, there would be a vast abundance for them, and they would be out of view most time.

Another skeptical distortion about Loch is that a small population of giant eels in Loch Ness would not be able to survive in isolation.

Loch Ness is connected to the open ocean by waterways large enough float medium-sized oceanliners. That is how all those large fish (five-foot salmon and five-foot pike) get into Loch Ness from the open ocean. Five-foot, juvenile giant eels could easily travel in both directions through those same waterways.

The word "sea serpent" refers to Loch Ness-type animals (giant eels) seen in the open ocean. "Sea serpents" are occassionally spotted in rivers. They are also sighted near certain river mouths. All of the locations have one thing in common -- lots of large, migrating fish.

They are occassionally spotted by Sicilian fisherman near the mouth of the Carmel River near Monterey, California; and by Quinault Indian fisherman near the mouth of the Queets River in Washington; and by Yurok Indian fisherman near the mouth of the Klamath River in Northern California.

Nothing would stop juvenile giant eels from pusuing migrating fish up rivers and water channels to places like Lake Champlain, on the NewYork-Vermont border, or into Chesapeake Bay in the eastern United States.


The "Loch Ness Monster" and "Bigfoot" have a few things in common that are not often mentioned.

The sightings of both suggest giant variants of known species -- Orangutans and common eels. In some instances these giant variants are living in the same neighborhoods as their smaller counterparts.

Both giant eels and giant apes are
truly gigantic, compared to humans. They are way too intimidating, and way too fast, and way too large, to be captured the way their smaller counterparts are captured.

The famous photo debunking story, ten years ago -- the one that instantly misinformed the general public about Loch Ness history -- was very hot and very global. The history was knowingly distorted to make it the biggest story possible. In order to make it the biggest story possible, the story writers had to pin the whole legend on that one photo, so they pinned it all on that one photo, and then they triumphantly announced the "Loch Ness Hoax Finally Revealed".

Hopefully Bernama will never do the sorts of things that are common practice with British tabloids.

An analogy for young journalists to keep in mind:

If you are a lawyer defending a client in a trial, and you have a thousand witnesses arrayed against you, and those witnesses are all credible and adamant about what they saw your client doing, and they are now testifying against your client one by one ... just see how far you will get with a judge and jury by trying to argue that all those witnesses were hallucinating when they observed your client.
