It's Not Bigfoot, but . . . .

Swedish sea monster 'caught on film' - The Local: "A group of filmmakers claim to have successfully captured Sweden’s legendary Great Lake Sea Monster (Storsjoodjuret), which is said to lurk in the waters of the Storsjon outside Ostersund in northern Sweden.

A film crew which set up cameras on one of the lake’s islets last spring now say that they have an image of the seamonster, according to Svergies Television.

The film clip shows a blurry, long and narrow silhouette moving in the lake’s depths."

Why the Wiki says this creature is fictional is beyond me.

We all know that Wikipedia isn't entirely reliable. That creature looks like a distant relative of the Texas Jackalope to me.
