Have you ever known about the only left dinosaur which still live in this era? You must be answering. “It’s a komodo dragon!” Komodo dragon does live in Indonesia and it is type of a dinosaur. But it’s not totally a dinosaur—it just has some resemblances to it, especially to a species called Plesiosaur.
The only left dinosaur or the original dinosaur which still live in this era, is told to live in a lake in Scotland named Loch Ness (Loch means “Lake”). Loch Ness is near to the city of Inverness in the northern of that lake and also one of the deepest lakes in Europe. The name of that creature is Nessie.
The legend told that Nessie used to live in the ice age. A long time ago, the sea monsters lived in the northern sea of Scotland—Baltic Sea. But when the ice age overed, the glaciers was getting melt and waters covered half of Scotland. When it overed to pour, some sea monsters were trapped in the bowls that are now filled by water—or we call it as lake. So, Nessie is kind of a lake-monster.
Nessie is told to be a female. She has strong resemblance to be one of the plesiosaur types. Nessie can use two types of respirations—she can breath above the surface, both in the water. Many eyewitnesses said that Nessie has a long neck, two couples of fins, and also a tail. Some other people who claimed to have seen her said that nessie had long body likely a dragon (Chinese dragon).
Some people even have proven about the existence of nessie. They even have published various pictures that describe the appearances of nessie. Marmaduke Wetherell, a hunter who has published the famous and most-known picture of nessie captured in 1934. You might have seen the picture nowadays. But some people's said that this photo was fake and the figure of the creature called Nessie was just Marmaduke’s creation.
Somesay Nessie lives in her grotto under the Loch Ness, or under Urquhart Castle in Loch Ness’ shore. But the source told that Nessie only eats fishes like salmon. The factor that caused why we can’t discover about this monster so far is because Loch Ness is a deep and dark morass. The divers can’t dive into the water of Loch Ness to prove the existence of the legendary monster.
But what people are now mostly talking about is: how do nessies get to Loch Ness? OK, let's get back in time over hundreds and millions years ago. Nessies are told to live in open sea of Arctic. Then the island of Great Britain appeared and some nessies were trapped in a small lake where it used to be part of the sea. The lake is called as Loch Ness where the nessies are told to be living in it until at this time.
The legend of Nessie have floated around the world and until now, we can’t decide if Nessie was real or just a legend or fiction to be the entertainment. We can't even decide how she really looks like. Maybe she's not as what people have thought about her - which has strong resemblances to plesiosaur and not to mention having four fins and long neck. Maybe she's just a whale or kind of mammals that live in Loch Ness.
The news about Nessie made the tourists got interested to come to Loch Ness to see the place where the only-left dinosaur lives. This caused the people who lived near this lake added their money for selling souvenirs about Nessie. The news about Nessie still keep on going as people claimed that they have seen this monster appeared. Or maybe you are the one of the witnesses…
