Welcome to Gaia! ::

Do you think it is real or totally fake?
Vote and if you say 'real' post what you think it is and why you think it is real. If you say 'fake' post why.

I think it is real.


I think it is a Ichthyosaur, plesiosaur, or some other form of water dwelling dinosaur.
I think that because no one knows what really happened when land dwelling dinosaurs died. And if they all died, why would animals be in existence? Wouldn't they have died too? Some creatures must have survived in order for us to be living, right? So maybe the water dwellers survived and are living right now. 3nodding


And thats my explanation.

Exactly.

Ive heard people say its a mound of logs or something but thats bullhockey!

That's the only explanation I need to know it's real!

I would like to start by saying that I don't believe that it's real. It is probably something else that, from a distance, looks to be a monster-type creature, which people have reported it as. No one wants to get too close to a monster, right? Even if they're not sure about it, it could be dangerous. It could be sticks, stones, garbage, lots of things!


Hmm....

Well, I'll admit, it's a good argument. However, how could it be a dinosaur? Surely, if that were the case, there would be more than one "Loch Ness Monster," right? Since there can't be just one. That's highly improbable.

And why would it only be spotted in one lake? I doubt they'd stay to one lake. And if they did, again we go to my above argument as to why there's not been a spotting of more than one yet. If they're all clustered there, why would we only see one? Where are the others? Underwater? Why isn't the one seen underwater? I suppose they now come up to sunbathe one by one?


Another interesting argument. In that case, did the Sabretooth Tigers also not go extinct? Will we find them in some cave? What about Mammoths? We've seen some frozen ones, but never alive ones. Where could they be hiding?

One species can go extinct without endangering the rest of the creatures littering the earth. There's no certain explanation for their death, so for all we know, they died of disease. If that were the case, it's possible that an epidemic of this disease spread and killed all the dinosaurs, yet it did not affect other creatures. Or perhaps even it was another creature, carrying the disease, that caused the wide-spread? Kinda like the Black Plague, right?

Maybe they died from a meteor (which I personally don't believe), and there would have been survivors, even if it was only the cockroaches. Maybe they died due to wide-spread famine. Or maybe it was a drought. Could it be both? There are bound to be things surviving through all these things. Maybe some creatures migrated to survive, such as birds. Maybe it happened during the winter, when things were hibernating, and they slept through the famine/drought.

Lots of possibilities there. Point being that I still don't believe in this creature. Then again, I don't believe in just about any mythical creature. I think ghosts are a possibility, and maybe even aliens, but that's about it.

I posted in this forum to spark debate. Because that's what every good thread needs, right? 3nodding

That's interesting.
