New Photograph of Argentina Lake Monster
From Cryptomundo:
A man sent this photograph to a newspaper of Bariloche and planted a new seed of doubt about the existence of this mythical animal. This time, the image was captured in Mascardi Lake.
The image published in the Matutinal Rionegrino the Cordillerano shows an animal similar to a serpent that shows itself on the surface of the water.
“I thought that they were huillines [river otters], when I saw it diving under the water, but when she showed [again] I was surprised. It looked little like any other animal that I had seen before, and I was scared by its presence when it appeared,” related the reader who sent the photography to the newspaper.
For the aware, this could be a test of the existence of the “Nahuelito.”
But for the skeptical ones, it is only a trunk floating in the water.
The history of “Nahuelito”:
It is an unknown aquatic creature, who, according to the popular belief, lives in Nahuel Huapi Lake in Argentina.
The legend goes back to indigenous stories and the first registered sighting dates back to 1910, when George Garret recorded he saw “about 400 meters distance away a creature whose visible part measured between 5 and 7 meters in length and excelled about two meters out of the water.”
In 1897, the credible Dr. Onelli, director of the Zoological Park of Buenos Aires, began to receive sporadic information about a strange creature that inhabited the Lagos patagónicos and organized an expedition in search of it. The search did not obtain any positive results.
More recently, in 1960, the Argentina Navy encountered in the lake an unidentified submarine object for 18 days, without being able to identify it.
The most popular hypothesis is that the prehistoric monster, “Nahuelito,” is a survivor of the time of the dinosaurs, probably a “plesiosaur.”

That “More recently, in 1960, the Argentina Navy encountered in the lake an unidentified submarine object for 18 days, without being able to identify it. ” Is not true, a typical example of false information spread on the Internet.
The true story: The incident happened nearly 500 miles away from the lake, at Golfo Nuevo on the Atlantic Ocean coast by a main Argentine submarine base. See “The Wily Whatzit” Newsweek magazine Feb. 22, 1960. p. 57 or http://www.waterufo.net/item.php?id=396. It was surely a foreign spy submarine during the early cold war era and not “Nahuelito”.

Mascardi Lake Critter: This will sound like and odd criticism, but there is something about the eyes that makes me think more of a puppet than a living animal. (I paint portraits as a hobby.) If these animals move as quickly as their alleged cousins, the Kelpies and the Nessies, this thing would have been looking straight at the photographer. Please also refer to the Rines photos of 1975; the Nessie was definitely giving the eye to that camera rig. I think this is a hoax.
