Loch Ness Monster Finally Identified
Forensic Artist and private investigator William McDonald, finally identifies what Loch Ness Monster may be.
(PRWEB) April 7, 2005 -- After nearly 1,500 years of conjecture, it appears the Loch Ness Monster may finally be identified. According to American Forensic Artist and private investigator William McDonald, the famous lake monster known as “Nessie” is neither a plesiosaur or prehistoric reptile, but a real, predatory species of water animal possessing the ability to hunt on land.
In the winter months of 2004, McDonald photographed tracks left by a large animal on a mud-covered Loch Ness shoreline in an area south of Invermoriston, just off the A-82 highway. Movie footage may be viewed at http://loch-movie.tripod.com. Weeks later, McDonald was contacted by two American university students who had just returned from a Spring Break trip to Britain. The students provided McDonald with video tape footage of the remains of a 200-pound Highland red deer carcass, found in a boat-only accessible area known to local fishermen as a “Kill Zone.” The deer appears to have been torn in half, its pelt ravaged. (there are no bears in the Scottish Highlands). But the most shocking find was a shed animal tooth – found wedged between the deer’s exposed ribcage. The tooth is barbed, well-rooted, and measured nearly four inches in length!
According to the three eyewitnesses on the video, shortly after the find, the tooth and several video tapes were confiscated by a local water bailiff. Highland authorities were uncooperative in the students’ efforts to have their find returned. The salvaged footage and photos of the tooth have been posted at http://www.lochnesstooth.com, along with a $5,000 reward for any information leading to the return of the “Nessie” tooth.
Mr. McDonald is coordinating the students’ efforts to have the tooth returned. He can be reached at Argonaut-Grey Wolf Productions in Mesa, AZ. PHONE: 480-330-7553.

Mac, I'd love to go on the Celtic Ping list too, if there is one.
Btw; What is a 'Ping' list?
Please add me to the Celtic ping list. :-D
When I see college students, Spring Break, and the Loch Ness monster in the same article, I must admit I become just a wee bit skeptical.
Hi Ruthy!
I am enjoying this thread, I like this kind of weird thing, for whatever reason.
Dragons? Here on Earth?
We should solve this the easy way... or the REAL easy way!

How conveeenient. No physical eveidence ensures that no proper study or DNA tests can be done. A sceptic must wonder if there actually is a tooth. Photographic 'evidence' notwithstanding.
Yeah, I saw that, too. But, even taking into account the fingers curving, it looks alittle "off"... lol.
Thanks for the much needed comic relief. I think the skier was my favorite. A friend of mine showed me the agonizing pillowfight clip a few weeks ago. It still hurts to watch.
Or a basilisk.
Funny shite. Gotta use judgement and discernment on that web site I refr'd, as with everything of course.
That kid jumping off the roof onto the dumpster. SLAM!
One of the funny parts about that scenario is the monkey sound he made, something like "wah!", then he actually crouches like a monkey, and then .... SLAM. It's almost as funny as throwing fire crackers in someone's yard (when you're like, 12).
Someone I know (and all his buds), get this, used to make ROAD BLOCKS back in the late 60's early 70s in a wooded, upscale, tree-lined neighborhood.
Take your typical trash night. They would prowl the streets, find one of these curvey roads near the top of the hill, and set up trash barrels and God only knows what across the road. Great huh?
One night, some (presumably) drunk older kids were ripping around in their VW Bug and they came around the corner, but saw the roadblock.
This is where it gets interesting.
The older kids BACKED UP the car, hit forward, got speed and SLAMMED through the roadblock.
Then the older dudes all jumped out of the VW and proceeded to try and hunt down the younger dudes (who shall remain anonymous) to lay on the beating.
Not sure how it ended up that night, but I think that was the last roadblock these individuals did.
Wasn't me, that's all I can say. True story. To hear it told by someone who was there is even funnier. Same deal with the tennis ball incident. Tying lawn chairs with rope off of neighbors roofs was another winner this "crew" favored. I wasn;t THAT bad.
Off the hook!
Now THAT'S cute!
Or a Basilisk...
Is there an echo in here?...in here?...in here?...in here?...
ok :)
"That bit of info is fascinating. Have to feel sorry
for her, sitting by the window in her dungeon, seeing
something so unusual and not being able to tell a soul."
Yeah, even if she had said anything, she probably
wouldn't have been believed. Others have seen it
too, including a monk (or something like that), but
my mom couldn't remember his name.
You're on as well.
A ping list is where when someone finds something relating to the topic (in this case, all things Celtic) then you, along with a list of other people get notified (or "pinged") about it.
