Harmful or Friendly?

A person like you who has never seen the "Nessie" is most likely to ask this question: "Is the Lochness Monster friendly or not?" Well, most people fear the Lochness, but the Nessie, weighing around 500 lb., 80 feet in length, and having a long neck with a fat body, is supposedly friendly. To most people it's just a harmless monster swimming under the waters of the Loch. And it is just a friendly monster, because there is no evidence that the Lochness monster has ever badly hurt or killed anyone.

The Nessie takes after the Plesiosaur (below) which lived in the prehistoric age. Like the Lochness Monster, it had four big flippers for feet, a long neck , and a large body. Thus, the Lochness Monster and the Plesiosaur have a lot in common. The only difference between them is that the Plesiosaur was probably a little bit bigger than the Nessie in size.

Scientists today are still trying to figure out if the Nessie is friendly, but more importantly, if the Lochness monster exists. What do you think? Harmful or friendly, you can E-mail us and give your idea!
