the one on bottom is the one i mention but the one in its mouth looks more like the depictions of loch ness.

and please no more rude and uninformation comment. T.T
i just read an article about the suggested term Nessiteras rhombopteryx and it said it could have been a remnant of the ice age?

Its neither. Dinosaurs died millions of years ago. The Loch Ness Monster was a clever ploy by some old Scotsman, to bring up tourism...obviously, it worked!

IDK but I hope they catch it so we can find out, it makes sense to me that something survived, you know it would be so cool.

The body of water, Loch Ness, could not support something as large as a liopleuradon. It is just a legend. It cannot exist in Loch Ness. There isn't enough there for a large creature to eat.

The loch ness monster was a elephant trunk because elephants used to bathe where they took pictures of the loch ness, and the elephants went underwater with there trunks out but really who knows
