no,
if several full radar scans of the loch can't find it, then its either
A. ABle to come on land "or beneath the bottom
B. Not there at all
C. other animals being mistaken for a monster
or
D. actually a kelpie or something and can't be found.

It seems to keep itself pretty well protected. So much so we can't even find the damn thing.

yes it is obviously very well protected. I wonder if its real if it has magical powers to make itself invisible??

the Loch is filled with caverns scattered across the bottom, so nessy could easily hide if provoked... and we have no technology yet that is able to go through everything soo fast that it can cover everything. so its said that Nessy could have just been hiding... of course i heard they also wanted to drain it just to see if it existed...

Money Pala. People want to be the one to prove Nessie right or wrong.
I don't think anything like that is there.

I thought the government had spent millions of dollars looking for it.
With no results.
It may have moved. :D

They've searched the entire Loch twice, both times with radar and both times found nothing.
First time was decades ago, so they did a second search only a few years ago with the latest radar technology.
Just to make sure the radar was effective enough, they filled a small underwater baloon "bigger than the native fish at those depths" and didn't tell the teams searching where it was. WHile searching they found the tiny balloon but no monster.

The loch is pretty small and has no cover around it. Anything in there would certainly need to be invisible. The first siting that started the whole thing was admitted as a hoax and frankly the will to believe and a desire for tourist dolars is the main thing keeping the whole idea going.

the loch is freaking huge! it spans the length of the british isle and is 600 feet deep.
what place are you talking about? as for cover their are many places along the bank were their are no houses or streets only forest.

i thought the loch was 900 feet deep
anyway i think we should just leave it alone of start sacrificing virgins to it or sumthin ya know lol but seriously we need to leave it alone there are so few things left unexplained in this world that if they do find it or don't it'll be a dissapoint ment to alot of people

"I heard, that japaneese scientists, well they placed explosives at the bottom of Lake Loch Ness to..."
Oh hell with it... I if i continue that sentence, Im probably gonna get shot.
Anyhow, I heard that there were a lot of tunnels and caverns beneath Loch Ness, so if the radar didnt reach those caverns, "Nessie" could have hid there...

was just watching a show about loch ness
official dimensions
27 miles long
1 mile wide in places
reaches a depth of 750 feet
has lots of bays, and such along its bank which is mostly sorrounded by forests to hide in.
granite walls so no caves along the side, but the bottome is softer especially at the deep parts.
can't harbor a pure water based large predator population.
so either nessie is a single immortal creature or are much smaller than sightings suggest "wouldn't be the first time eye witnesses thought something that was only six feet long was thirty feet long."

because people are afraid of what they cannot explain, so they would rather either kill it, or find it so they arent affraid, because they can analyze it, file it, and forget about it completly

They probably want to tag it so they know where it is at all times. Being Scottish, i have a natural curiosity on this subject... The most common theory is that "Nessie" is a pleseosaur(sp), a dinosaur which survived the ice age, perhaps DUE to the caverns below loch ness. Who is to say that the caverns below Loch Ness do not have more caverns within, perhaps spanning to places like America, etc? Thus, "Nessie", would be able to make a swift escape into the likes of the pacific ocean. Perhaps it can breathe and swim in both warm and cold, salty and pure water. It would most certainly make sense that it would be armoured - it is most probably an evolved state of pleseosaur. The ice age would have provoked it to build a resistance to freezing water, and it would have its natural tolerance to warm water.
Just my theories.

The main problem with these is that these aquatic reptiles went extinct 65 million years before the ice age "between the mass extinction and the ice age was a great thermal age when the sahara was an inland ocean and the Himilayas didn't exist yet. " But Lochness and the Great Lakes "and most lakes inhanited by lake monsters" were created by the glaciers. So what ever is in them would have to have swam in after the glaciers reseded in those years that the lakes were connected or had to have moved in the rivers or over land to them.

I think that Loch Ness should be left alone, but I don't think that "Nessie" would need much protection considering what all that has happened. It could be a spirit of sorts, but I wouldn't think so considering that it has been sighted before and if it didn't want to be seen then I don't think that it would be seen. And if "Nessie" is real which I think it is, then it's most likely an Immortal, it could be a watcher so that if anything happens then it can fix it..it's hard to tell. I know I've met human watchers before...and protectors, but I think that "Nessie" would be better fit for the job because it wouldn't have to deal with human emotions.

Well, Nessie could be aged and unable to attack, so thereforth they should double the protective spells around lake nessie
