Have you heard of the Loch Ness Monster? Many people believe that there is a huge animal living in Loch Ness in Scotland. The animal is about 50 meters long including its tail. Nobody knows anything about its eating habits. There are some photos of the animal taken by different people visited the lake, but nobody can prove that they are real. This animal given the nickname Nessie has been one of the greatest tourist attractions in the area for years. Expeditions sent to Scotland tried very hard to find and catch Nessie. And so did individuals looking for the animal. Nessie seen now and again is still a great mystery. Very few things known about Nessie are: it has a long and thin neck like a giraffe's, its head is quite small and looks like a horse's or a snake's head, its colour is dark yellow and its habitat is the deepest and the coldest part of the lake.
