Sea Monsters Really There

Sea monsters such as those described in the stories of ancient mariners, does not mean entirely mythical. Some scientists claim, the creature is real. Although, their appearance was like that described film 'Jurassic Park', did not resemble prehistoric creatures.
The scientists discussed the possibility of a giant creature in the sea that have not met in the event the Zoological Society of London (ZSL). One of the speakers are scientists palaeontologist, Dr Darren Naish. "A number of sightings 'sea monster' who reported not everything can be said to be a misinterpretation, ignorance, or a hoax, aka false news," he said as published the Daily Mail, Tuesday, July 12, 2011.
At least some of them - particularly those encountered people who understand the true nature - is the description of real animals that have not known of its existence. Moreover, "a large number of large marine animals continue to be found, such as whales and sharks new species. So the idea that species of 'monster' was just a matter of time, at least reasonable," said Naish.
However, he rejected the idea that the appearance of 'sea monster' resemble prehistoric creatures. Msialnya, had a long neck like a dinosaur.
Meanwhile, a session titled "Kriptozoologi: Science or pseudoscience" held Dr Charles Paxton from the University of St Andrews.
He argues, wrong to assume that all large animals in the sea have been found at this time. "If the criteria is just great, this is not the question," he said. For example, in 1995, found stingrays that live on the seabed, its length 3.42 meters."There is a difference between animals that live on the seafloor and those that appear to breathe the air, but we have discovered a new species of whale," he added.
In line with Naish, he agreed that the slim chance we will find the animal plesiosaurs. "If there are prehistoric animals alive today would imply that there is something very wrong with our understanding of the fossil record," he said.
FYI, the eight large marine species have been discovered in the last 20 years. In 1905, zoologist Edmond Meade-Waldo and Michael Nicoll find a 'sea serpent' off the coast of Brazil.
Meanwhile, kriptozoologi have a literal meaning, 'the study of hidden animals ". This refers to the attempt to find a mythical creature whose existence has not been proven, like a giant Loch Ness, Bigfoot and the Yeti.
