    It may be that there is a water monster that has not been found for the time being, or it may be that it has been a giant eel. According to the report, an international scientific research team has collected 250 "environmental DNA" samples at different locations and depths of the lake since June 2018 to study the lake's biodiversity. This type of research method is mostly used to monitor the activity of whales or sharks in the ocean.

    After analyzing the lake water samples, Gemmer said at a press conference held at the Loch Ness Center in Dramnadrohit, Scotland on the 5th that there are many eels in Loch Ness, and the research team has found eel DNA in water samples from almost all sampling sites, so it cannot be ruled out that there may be very large eels in the lake. But he also stressed that it is not possible to determine whether the DNA belongs to a normal-sized eel or a giant eel from the available samples, "We don't know yet." ”

    Moreover, the new data also ruled out the possibility of plesiosaurs in Loch Ness. "Did there be plesiosaurs in Loch Ness? No.

    There is absolutely no evidence of any reptile sequences in our samples," says Gemmel, "so I think we're fairly certain that there are no squamous reptiles in Loch Ness."

    In response to the 2018 claim by Loch Ness hunter Steve Feltham that there are giant catfish in Loch Ness, Gemmer also believes that this is unlikely to be the answer, "There may be giant catfish in Loch Ness, but we didn't find [their DNA]. "There's probably a monster in Loch Ness," he added, "but we didn't find it."

    The report also mentioned that the main purpose of the research by the Gemer team was to study the biodiversity of the lake. As a result, Gemmer also said at the launch that the study will eventually provide a publicly available database of all species in the lake, which could help measure changes in biodiversity as well as the impact of invasive species. According to previous reports, the legend about the Loch Ness Monster can be traced back to 565 A.D., and in nearly 1,500 years of history, the Loch Ness Monster has been "discovered" a total of 1,036 times, but the vast majority of them are not true.

    It should be a giant eel, because the giant eel is very large.

    This is said to be true, and some scientists at the time actually issued a proof.

    It's possible that this one is a giant eel, as there is no such thing as a water monster.

    The research team pointed out that although there is still relatively little evidence for this, there is a large amount of DNA evidence in front of us that suggests that the most likely identity of the Loch Ness Monster is really an eel.

    Dr. Thorn, who returned to Loch Ness with the baby moray eels with them, continued to study the slippery moray eel. He found that after three years of not seeing him, the moray eel had a stronger appetite and was getting bigger and bigger.

    The Loch Ness Monster is considered to be one of the most mysterious events in the world, and some people have always suspected that the Loch Ness Monster really exists, and some people say that the Loch Ness Monster may be an extinct plesiosaur, but not long ago, some scientists believed that the Loch Ness Monster was very likely to be a giant eel, and the Loch Ness Monster was really a giant eel? Many people said that they could not be trusted, but he came up with "real evidence", let's take a look.

    In fact, people have always had a lot of controversy about the identity of the Loch Ness Monster, most of them believe that the Loch Ness Monster is likely to be an unextinct plesiosaur, mainly based on the Loch Ness Monster photographed**, but you must know that the plesiosaur was extinct tens of thousands of years ago, and the climate on the earth has already undergone great changes, how did the plesiosaur adapt to the new environment?

    However, a scientist who specializes in collecting DNA at Loch Ness said that the legendary monster in Loch Ness may be a giant orange eel. It is reported that the scientist is Gomel, a professor at the University of Otago in New Zealand, and his research team has been collecting water samples from Loch Ness since 2018 to analyze the DNA of the animals and plants in the lake to find out the true identity of the Loch Ness Monster.

    After more than a year of hard work, his team collected hundreds of water samples from the lake and extracted about 250 DNA samples, in which large amounts of eel DNA were found, though he said the eel's DNA could not yet be determined whether there were large or small eel colonies in the lake.

    There is no Loch Ness Monster in the world.

    According to the Times of India on July 24, 2013, Italian geologist Luigi Picardi claimed to have solved the mystery of the Loch Ness Monster, believing that the so-called monster was actually a hallucinatory effect caused by the bubbles released from the bottom of the Loch Ness fault during the active period. The Loch Ness Monster first appeared in the 30s of the 20th century.

    Kenneth Wilson, a London-based surgeon, photographed a monster with a long-necked snake head in Loch Ness. This ** was widely circulated, and it was not until decades later that it was discovered that it was actually a prank. The reason why some people always think that there are water monsters in the lake is because human beings will always describe what they see according to their own imagination, which is not necessarily real.

    The legend of the Loch Ness Monster:

    Loch Ness is located in the north of Scotland, and the ratio of length to width of this loch is somewhat peculiar, according to estimates of the length of Loch Ness is about 39 kilometres and the width is about 2 kilometres, which is more in line with the definition of a river. Loch Ness is a freshwater lake that does not freeze all year round, so it has become a habitat for many creatures and has provided the conditions for the birth of the Loch Ness Monster.

    It is known that it has a slender neck, and its body surface looks smooth and soft, similar to that of plesiosaurs in the dinosaur period. When it appeared, layers of foam appeared on the surface of the lake, and there was a lot of movement. It is also said that the Loch Ness Monster spits smoke when it appears, making the entire Loch Ness surface appear as a foggy scene.

    Because of the large eels that have been caught, it is very likely that the famous Loch Ness Monster is a giant eel. Freeman is willing to provide the largest number of wavesonar locators and voice-activated cameras free of charge to help Seenbo accelerate the pace of research.

    Perhaps this is the one that scientists discovered through long-term research that was caught by the doctor, and it was also a eunuch eel.

    This question is difficult to answer, because some things are said to be there, and they are passed on by a hundred times, and the more they are spread, the more amazing it is, whether there is one or not, you decide for yourself. Also, it is certain that someone may really see it or be published after a few decades. Like are there any ghosts in the world?

    The Loch Ness Monster may not exist, but if it does, it may be a giant eel.

    On September 4, New Zealand scientists said at a press conference that DNA analysis collected had ruled out speculation that the monster was plesiosaurs, catfish, sharks and sturgeons, most likely eels.

    The Guardian reported that an international team of scientists led by Neil Gemmell of the University of Otago in New Zealand analysed DNA samples from the murky waters of Loch Ness and identified about 3,000 different species. Gemmell wrote in a press release that most species are too small to be detected; The data also suggests that some theories that the Loch Ness Monster is a monster can also be ruled out.

    Some people think that the Loch Ness Monster may have been a Jurassic dinosaur, like a plesiosaur, or some kind of giant fish. However, Gemmell's team found no evidence that the creature that lived in Loch Ness was a distant relative of a dinosaur, a giant catfish, a sturgeon or a shark.

    As with all previous investigations, we found no conclusive evidence for it," Gemmell wrote, "but we do have a further theory to test – it could be a giant eel, and it might be worth digging into." ”

    Researchers have found large amounts of eel DNA, as well as other common organisms, including humans, dogs, sheep, cows and deer. Although this data does not determine the size of the eels that live in Loch Ness, it is worth mentioning that the largest known European eel reached a meter length and weighed more than 10 catties.

    A large amount of eel DNA has been found in the lake, so it is possible that the "water monster" is a giant eel. However, there is no evidence that there are indeed "water monsters" in the lake.
