The Loch Ness Monster is often described as large, long-necked and with one or more humps protruding from the water.
Popular interest and belief in the creature has varied since it was brought to worldwide attention in 1933.
There are multiple sightings each year.
In 2024 underwater detectors picked up a regular heartbeat deep in Loch Ness.
The rhythmic pulsing was picked up on a hydrophone that was deployed 100-feet beneath the surface.
And experts were excited
At the time Alan McKenna from the research group Loch Ness Exploration told What’s The Jam: “At first we believed that the hydrophone might be getting dragged along the bottom but the boat skipper confirmed the cable was at least five metres from the bottom.
“You can clearly hear a rhythmic pulse or heartbeat within the recording.
“We’ve no idea what was causing this sound but it’s very interesting.”
