Shuswap Lake Monster
The Shuswap Lake Monster, also known as "''Shuswaggi ''", is a cryptid which supposedly lives in British Columbia's Shuswap Lake.
== Sightings ==
On 3 June 1984, a woman named Linda Griffiths was sailing on the lake with her two children and a friend of theirs when she observed a patch of water, about 300 feet away from her, that suddenly began to churn violently. After looking at the disturbance with her binoculars, she then noticed seven greyish-brown humps moving above the surface of the water in a straight line, and at a rapid pace. The animal crossed in front of the boat before finally submerging. After her sighting, Mrs. Griffiths said that the creature resembled a fast-moving snake, around 20 to 25 feet in total length, and that it swam with vertical undulations.
== Explanations ==
British cryptozoologist Dr. Karl Shuker has hypothesized that the Lake Shuswap Monster might possibly be a surviving Zeuglodont. These were specialized prehistoric, serpent-like whales, that lived during the Eocene Epoch. They were about the same size as the lake monster, and, unlike modern-day whales, they had a well-developed neck, which could possibly be raised above the surface of the water. This might possibly account for head-and-neck sightings of this creature.〔
