The complete fossilized remains of the Ponteix Plesiosaur, nicknamed "Mo", were found 6 km's NE of Ponteix, & were excavated between 1992 & 1994. The long-necked plesiosaur is a sea reptile that lived 70 to 75 million years ago & reached lengths up to 38 feet.

According to a marine biologist in Scotland, a fanatical “nessie”, they exist in 10 of the great lakes - Scotland just markets them better than Canada :) ] You might find this article interesting :) http://www.crawley-creatures.com/recent/lucy.htm
