Loch Ness monster could be real according to new theory
Harry PettitTHE Loch Ness monster is Britain's greatest unsolved mystery, with countless attempts to find the mythical beast falling flat.
The scientist previously said it would be a surprise if his tests found evidence of DNA from a large extinct marine reptile.As well as searching for reptile DNA, the study also planned to test whether Nessie may have been a large fish, such as a catfish or sturgeon."It's a project people are excited about and we're able to tell them about the science we do in a different context," Professor Gemmell said.
However, wider interest in the monster was not sparked until 1933 after a road was built along the loch, making it far less isolated.The Loch Ness monster – known affectionately as Nessie – is often described as being a large animal with a long neck and usually with a hump popping out of the water.
