I just posted this on another list, in response to a cryptozoologist
whom is often in disagreement with me (and vice-versa).

Loch Ness Hunters Set Sights on Irish Monster
While I admire Sundberg's enthusiasm, he and other
cryptozoologists need to seriously consider the question of how
giant or even large animals support themselves in lakes with
little food supply (Loch Ness) or nearly NO food supply at all
(Lake Seljord). Obviously they are entering and leaving again,
by waterways which are not obvious since they are mostly
subterranean....as caverns detected by sonar or indicated by
vortices, in a wide range of "monster-inhabited" lakes around the
world, would suggest.
A close watch on potential underwate points of entry or egress of
this type might prove more fruitful than combing lakes with boats
and sonar or radar.
A good book which discusses the lake monster/underwater
vortex/cavern connection is Lake Monster Traditions: A
Cross-Cultural Analysis, by Michel Meurger and Claude Gagnon.
Fortean Tomes, 1988.
