Thanks to Nick Redfern for clearing that up. We’ve all been worried.
Once again a scientist clears up a mystery, based on his complete and comprehensive knowledge of every fossil everywhere for the past 1.500 million years, to prove that science knows everything and its just a matter of filling in some niggly details. All hail!
I believe that most of the cryptids people are seeing lean more to the ethereal end of existence than flesh-and-blood.

In the biochemistry of the brain.
Never having seen one myself, I cannot say for certain.
But there seem to be a lot of witnesses. And occasional tracks.
Salt Water Crocodile
Fresh water crocodile
It would seem the salt water plesiosaurs all died out and that only a small group of the Fresh water species survive
They also said the Coelacanth became extinct at the end of the Cretaceous Period. They didn’t.
Pelosisaurs
them ones we got upn here mountains is kinda shiny black oval shaped flat head with a long neck and maybe 2 humps, they ain`t scared of humans no way... maybe 30 feet long, theys love to sit at stream mouths entrances to them lakes and just gobble trout and fresh water salmon for dinner coz them lake monsters come out when the sun is goin down coz r too hot earlier..n wintertime they just break thru the new ice to give usn`s a show...in summertime they is chasing them schools of sheepshaed coz you kin see them fish jumping like crazy to git away from them lake monsters for lunchtime,,...
Modern sharks go upstream in the Mississippi all the time, Bull sharks in particular. They are a ‘salt water’ fish. And if we want to play the evolution game, nothing says that a plesiosaur type dino couldn’t have adapted to fresh water.
I have one in my front yard, the kids passing by love it and some adults do too. They take pictures of their kids pointing at it. It’s concrete and has lasted for quite a few years.
Bigfoot riding Nessie
Still more believable than Joe Biden winning in 2020.
I’ve lost so much sleep over this.

If the plesiosaur survived beyond 65 million years ago, why is the evidence to support such a scenario 100 percent absent? Because there is no evidence, that’s why.
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. As much as he tries to present his reasoning as scientifically based and I agree with his overall conclusion, that's not a scientific approach.
How about this as proof: the plesiosaur evidence has all either been revealed as fake or has a plausible alternative explanation. Also reptiles, assuming a plesiosaur is a reptile, are generally cold blooded. Scotland is not known for warm weather or large reptiles, and large reptiles even in warm climates sun themselves frequently to keep up body heat. What's the largest naturally occurring reptile at that latitude?
