It kind of like a dinosaur, with a small head on a long neck and humps on its back. People first Nessie in 1933. Since then, there have many sightings and a few photographs. Now, scientists from New Zealand will a special technique to see if there really a Loch Ness Monster. A research team, by Professor Neil Gemmell of the University of Otago, will use a technique called eDNA sampling to try and some of Nessie's DNA. Professor Gemmell says this will show if the monster really exists or not.

Sightings of the Loch Ness Monster are often in the newspapers. Loch Ness is in the Scottish Highlands. The word "loch" is the Scots word for "lake". Many scientists have to find the monster before. They have even sonar equipment to the bottom of the loch, which is 230 metres deep. All of the photographs that people have of Nessie over the years are blurred. Some people say they just car tyres floating in the water. Gemmell says he will water from the loch. He said there should DNA from the monster's skin, urine and other things. He will all DNA found and sure it is not from other marine animals. If he finds DNA not to scientists, that could to Nessie.
