Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle

Loch Ness is a very deep lake in Scotland.

Sighting

Some people say that there is a monster in the lake. And some even claim (behaupten) they have seen it.

On 4 August 1933 the Courier published a report of another sighting. This one was claimed by Londoner George Spicer. While they were driving around the loch, he and his wife saw "the nearest to a dragon or pre-historic animal that I have ever seen in my life" crawling across the road toward the loch with "an animal" in its mouth. He described it as having "a long neck, which moved up and down". He said the body "was fairly big, with a high back, but "as for a tail I cannot say, as it moved so rapidly, and when we got to the spot it had probably disappeared into the loch"

In 1934 Arthur Grant, veterinary student, was riding home early one morning on his motorcycle when he viewed the creature, which he described as being about 15 or 20 feet in length. He jumped from his motorcycle to look at the animal, but he said it snorted wildly and splashed into the loch.

Scientists, discrediting the prehistoric sea monster theory, are inclined to believe the frequently seen animal is either a deep-sea eel or stray shark.
