Does the Loch Ness Monster really exist? The mystery intensifies. Many people don't believe in Loch Ness Nessie and Chessie, but the world's Nessie expert Adrian Shine said to TODAY co-host Matt Lauer, "Is water a veil, or it is a mirror into our own imaginations?"

Recent findings suggest that the Loch Ness Monster is not part of our imaginations, that the legend of the Loch Ness may very well be valid.

The chronicle began in 536 A.D. with the first sighting of the water horse, but the first official recognition of the water horse, sea serpent, or sea monster was photographed on December 6, 1933. Over 11,000 reports document the sightings of the Loch Ness Monster. In spite of the photos, sightings, and other brief experiences, many refuse to believe this type of creature lives in the water.

Sightings of the Loch Ness Monster occur around Scotland, Florida, Massachusetts, and of course the infamous Chessie from the Chesapeake Bay. Chessie is the renowned creature that gives the Chesapeake Bay an attraction of magic and wonder. Chessie gets the name from the original Loch Ness Monster Nessie, often referred to as cousins. Most sightings occur in the summer when boaters, swimmers, and fishers are in the water, but the vast majority of Chessie sightings are from Love Point at Kent Island, the mouth of the Potomac, and the eastern Bay.

Shrine also adds, "What I'm doing is studying the Loch from so many aspects in order to find out what people are seeing, because you can't get away from the fact that they're seeing those things ... It's a very strange body of water that does some very peculiar things."

We may have more than just films and reported sightings on the Loch Ness. The Whitehaven News reported a Patron resident found a creature, washed up on shore that resembles a Loch Ness Monster baby. The lifeless creature looks like a baby dinosaur, resembling an infant Loch Ness Monster. Is this the first time we have tangible proof of the Loch Ness Monster? This finding may make it clear: http://www.s8int.com/dino14.html

This a great article, and now I'm here thinking about other mythical creatures, that people claim to have seen but others lack the belief in. Hmmmm.... if only you believe :)

I've been to Loch Ness (and to Chesapeake Bay, but I digress) and it is a fascinating place. And a mysterious one. I believe in the possibility of the existence of creatures we've yet to see (note all the new plants they find in the Amazon; and until the early 20th century, African mountain gorillas were thought to be a myth...) but I'm not sure about Nessie. Although the finding you report just fuels my curiosity! Well done, and a great read!

Great article. I really enjoyed it. I believe, I believe...I think this is where Tinkerbell's life is saved. All kidding aside. I had never heard about the "monster baby" being washed up on shore.

Interesting to ponder. I am open to the idea. There are so many mysteries in this world. After all, awhile ago, they just found that giant squid . . . they had never seen those before . . . so I'm not saying yes or no . . . just a maybe, like most mysteries.
