We know for a fact that -- assuming the Loch Ness monsters exist -- they do not spend their time hiding in deep trenches. If the sightings, photos and other reports are what they are claimed to be then Nessie is in fact often at the surface of the lake, splashing, catching fish and posing for ambiguous photos.

The Loch Ness Monster's secret hiding place may have been found by a former fisherman who has sonically mapped the depths of the world's seas. But his exciting discovery may also raise questions about how deep world famous Loch Ness really is.... Previously, the UK's second largest loch, Loch Ness, was measured at 813 feet deep. But 43-year-old tourist sightseeing vessel skipper Keith Stewart has found a crevice about nine miles west of Inverness and he has measured it with state of the art sonar equipment at 889 feet.

For all those nay-sayers out there, the Loch Ness monster has finally been found. Well, sort of. An underwater drone discovered the remains of a 30-foot model of Old Nessie that was used in the 1970 movie The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, the BBC reported. The massive model sank to the bottom of Loch Ness during filming in 1969, and was only recently discovered by the underwater robot.

I think everyone has a Loch Ness monster, a condition that establishes faith. Some find theirs, others don't. I guess I am still searching for mine.

For Nessie to be a Plesiosaurus, he would have had to survive seventy million years longer than any known relative, adapt to fresh water, learn how to walk on land, hide from all human contact except for fleeting glances, and not leave behind any bones or waste products of any kind that could be detected. He also would have had to become rather weight conscious, since many scientists think that there is little food available for a creature of this size in the loch. Still, for many investigators, Plesiosaurus remains the best possible guess as to what Nessie is.

She normally lives in the murky waters of Loch Ness, but it seems that Nessie may be enjoying a short break in London -- if this footage is to be believed. The film, shot by YouTube user Lea K, is the second supposed sighting of the legendary creature on the River Thames in one week. The 18-second video, entitled 'Nessie In The Thames', shows a large dark object drifting down the river. What looks like a head bobs up and down in the middle of the channel, leaving small waves in its wake. Lea K wrote: 'Everyone was looking at a freaking rainbow and no one paid attention to this thing. It's probs just rubbish haha.'

It is my opinion that the animal referred to as Nessie, if it exists, is an undiscovered species of sea creature, perhaps even a mutation. Even in this day and age, large, extinct land and water creatures are being discovered all the time, thanks to advances in technology and our ability to gain access to hostile environs. The giant Muntjac of Laos, the two-hundred-pound Saola, a cowlike beast, and the discovery of six new species in the Andes Mountains all being examples. Though most probably of the same species, Nessie is not, however, the same animal confronted by Saint Columba in 565 A.D., back at a time the theorized Loch Ness aquifer may have been open to the sea. In fact, our timeline suggests the modern-day Nessie is a rogue, an animal that became trapped and cut-off from the Moray Firth, not millions or even thousands of years ago, but post-Saint Columba and fairly recently at that, most likely within the last hundred years.

Though people often speak of Nessie as a solitary (often female) animal, if it exists there must be more than one in the lake -- at least dozens if not hundreds -- to maintain a breeding population. This changes the equation and deepens the mystery, because with so many of them allegedly living in the lake they should be seen much more often.
