What is the Lake Champlain Monster?
The Lake Champlain Monster, usually known as Champ, is a legendary creature believed by some to live in Lake Champlain near Burlington, Vermont. Like the Scottish lake monster of Loch Ness, Champ is considered by believers to be a lost relative of aquatic dinosaurs. A 1970s photo taken by an amateur photographer shows a large creature in the lake, but whether the photograph is real, distorted or a hoax remains a subject of great debate.
