Madeyepixie... here is a reply to my email to Bill one of the people from the Tooth site, this is has it came in and unedited aprt from removing his address, email and phone number..

Bryan,

Bill McDonald here. Del has asked me to respond to your e-mail. May I ask the unit which you served with? I'm an American veteran. We may have mutual acquaintances.

Regarding the tooth: Del is seeking the return of the item which he is absolutely certain is a tooth and not a horn, antler or claw. He does not believe it to be an artificially manufactured (Hoaxed) artifact, but an actual large predator relic. I have, over many years, developed a theory as to the nature of legendary lake monsters in Canada, the Great Lakes region, northern Minnesota, Scandinavia,
Australia and most importantly, Northern Scotland. The configuration of this purported tooth is recognizable to me and should be to many lettered zoologists. The bite pattern suggested in the photo images of the Cervus elaphus hind's carcass is one that has been documented in books regarding natural predators of both fresh and salt water systems.

We are searching for the individual who claimed "Color of authority" and confiscated the claimed relic. He could be a male Caucasian affiliated with the Northern Constabulary, a "Water Bailiff," or a game warden. We have every reason to assume he is an experienced boater and fisherman with full knowledge
of every inch of the Loch Ness shoreline. He could be a local with a fake badge.

I am using the news media and all media outlets to apply stress to this individual's situation and our group has put up a $5000.00 reward for the recovery of the relic. We are prepared to launch a legal challenge to the current custodian's right of possession and to the manner in which he obtained it from Del. Del wants me to recover the relic, determine it's authenticity, and sell it to the highest bidder so
he can attend law school with the extra money. My motive is to see if it is a real animal relic, document it thoroughly, and see that the eventual owner is bound by a contract to maintain the tooth's availability to scientists and universities with legitimate research interests.

A forensics investigator is offering a $100,000 bounty for what might be a piece of Nessie. However, suspicions remain that the "Loch Ness tooth" Arizonabased Bill McDonald hopes to trace may be nothing more than the antler of a young deer.The four-inch long barbed object was allegedly found lodged in the ribcage of a dead deer on the shores of Loch Ness in March by two American students.The students say the tooth and a video tape were confiscated by a man claiming to be a local water bailiff. But they retained some footage of the tooth, excerpts from which can be seen on the Internet at www.LochNessTooth. com Mr McDonald, who believes the Loch Ness monster is a type of amphibian which became trapped in the loch in the 1930s, was contacted by the students and discussed their claims in a US radio interview with best-selling author Steve Alten, who recently published a thriller entitled "The Loch".

"After Steve did the show, I received interest from several museum curators, the producer of an Emmy-nominated documentary, marine biologists, and one very interested private investor, " said Mr McDonald."All are now convinced this discovery is real, and have committed funds for information leading to the return of the tooth by the Highland authorities."However, most local experts are sure the "tooth" is the antler of a young stag which may have broken off after a fight.
