Ankara hunts the 'Lake Van monster'

Turkish authorities are sending investigators to the country's largest lake
to look for what witnesses describe as a monster like a dinosaur. A
parlimentary commission agreed to a search for Turkey's version of the
Loch Ness monster, said to dwell in Lake Van, eastern Turkey, after the
provincial deputy governer claimed to have seen it. "The monster was just
like in cartoons. It was black and had triangular spikes on its back. It
looked like a dinosaur," he said. But Orhan Erman, a biology professor at
Ataturk University in Erzurum, said: "It is not possible for a creature of the
size claimed by witnesses to live in a closed lake like Van."
