    I think the argument that is often made is that we have discovered so little of our oceans that it’s possible we haven’t seen all the different aquatic species there are. Not suggesting Nessie is real, just the overall thought process I feel the believers use.

      Sure but Loch Ness is on the 3rd most populated island in the world, it’s comprehensively explored, there’s nothing newsworthy to say about it unless there was a vast oversight and that would be the head line, not the “monster”.

        Also, the loch is only like 10,000 years old, so any ‘monster’ would have to be from the ocean.

        There are sighting of sturgeon and other large fish that wandered into the loch which are likely candidates for misidentification.
