The Loch Ness Monster is an elusive creature. But it can't hide from Apple. Loch Ness Monster sightings have been reported almost every year since 565 AD. Some say "Nessie" is a myth, others a hoax, but a mysterious image found on Apple Maps might provide evidence that there is truth to the fables that there is a Loch Ness monster in the Scottish Highlands. Unless, of course, the image is of something else, like a boat.

Someone spotted the Loch Ness Monster while they were messing around on the computer and captured an Apple map satellite image. Experts studied the image for months and finally said, sure, this pic is most "likely" the Loch Ness Monster. What else could it be?

The Loch Ness Monster has eluded searches using state-of-the-art sonar equipment, a yellow submarine, psychics, seers and witches. But the Loch Ness Monster can't hide from  Apple.

Nessie hasn't been seen in the past 18 months, which is the longest stretch of time that Nessie has been unreported since 1925. There were three Nessie sightings in 2013, but they were all exposed as fakes. One image showed a duck, a big and frightening duck, but a duck nonetheless, one image was actually a wave and one of the pictures was shot somewhere far away from Loch Ness.

Nessie has been spotted 1,036 times since 565AD.

Gary Campbell the president of The Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club told the Mail "It looks like a boat wake, but the boat is missing. You can see some boats moored at the shore, but there isn't one here. We've shown it to boat experts and they don't know what it is."Whatever this is, it is under the water and heading south, so unless there have been secret submarine trials going on in the loch, the size of the object would make it likely to be Nessie."
