Highland police believed Nessie existed

A naive & arrogant (predetermined) estimation... We are talking about something we know little about, but also something which was around for at least 135 million years - a triumph of adaptation. Plesio & Plio genus can eat fish, squid, slugs, calms and other bottom-dwelling life. Latest research shows that their diet used to be much more balanced and diverse than previously assumed. A unit can hide in karst or in postglacial structures. Its also logical to assume that a unit has adapted to the anthropogenic factor. For example Eptocleidus favored shallow lakes and Thalassiodracon poss... [More]

as mattshark said, this is simply not possible. to be honest those who believe in nessie need to retake biology class.

bred on land, not enough food, ecologically inviable. Sorry but applying scientific principles is neither arrogant nor naive it is how you should be working if you ever want to work in science, making stuff up is unscientific. Have you compared the climate of Europe 65 mya and Europe now, any such claim of them being in the region is preposterous, it is climatologically amazingly different. Your argument is fallacious and if you want to become a palaeontologist, you are going to have to learn to use scientific method because if you don't your career will be over before it has begun. I also sug... [More]

i donno im a paleontologist and im pretty open about it ... maybe a residual taxon unit could have been encased during the last glacial period in pleistocene and then thaw in recent years ... and it doesnt have to be plesio ... So your saying that it is possable that this animal was frozen solid in a glacier for millions of years, then thawed out in the Loch and swam away like nothing happened? I do have a biology degree but have never worked in the field so I'm no expert...but as far as I know the only animals that can recover from being frozen solid are some small frogs and turtles, and this...

I do have a biology degree but have never worked in the field so I'm no expert...but as far as I know the only animals that can recover from being frozen solid are some small frogs and turtles, and this is only for one winter at a time not millions of years. What about the imminence weight of all that ice? wouldn't you expect that it would have crushed the animal...even if ti was frozen solid? Glaciers after all do move mounta... [More]

Many genus of vertebrates hibernate so dinosaurs could have too... Hibernation has been suggested for the hypsilophodontids, and the dinosaurs have likely been subject to circannual & circadian cycles like probably all vertebrates. Furthermore, plesio/plio genus are cold blooded reptiles not dinosaurs, all the more possibility for deep hibernation. Like i said, unlikely but still possible

Like i said, unlikely but still possible If cold blooded, how on earth could such a massive creature survive the frigid temps of Loch Ness, and never be seen? If Ectothermic, Nessie should be sun baking quite often shouldn't she?

Your concern for my well-being is touching thank you. But dont belittle me so you would feel better. Ive earned my degree and my opinion. And as your opinion is to use pseudo-science over science, it is hard to believe you.
