Scientists think they have finally solved the Loch Ness Monster mystery, concluding that the beast is most likely an eel.
The findings come amid the release of footage showing a huge creature, thought to be an eel, in the Scottish Highlands' River Ness.
Divers also told academics they have previously spotted 13ft-long eels in the loch.
Professor Neil Gemmell, from the University of Otago in New Zealand, said: "Eels are very plentiful in Loch Ness, with eel DNA found at pretty much every location sampled - there are a lot of them. So - are they giant eels?
