Lake Labynkyr is a deep lake is believed to shelter
a lake monster like Nessie, but smaller and more crocodile like. The lake is
situated on the territory of Oimyakon uluss. Legends speak about the monster
that lives deep in the water of the legendary lake and attacks dogs, reindeers
and even people. Stories say how one day the monster wiped out a caravan of
Even ( one of the native peoples in the area)people. There are several
documented encounters. The public first learned about the monster in the 1950's
from the diaries of soviet geologist named Tverdohlebov. Since then several
expeditions have set out to prove or disprove the existence of a monster. It is
said that it could be a huge pike, a water mammoth, a reptile or a
plesiosaurus, or even something from the parallel world.

Sightings of 'primeval monsters' in Siberia's Lake
Labynkyr were made before 'Nessie' was spotted in Scotland.An expedition by the
Russian Geographic Society is expected today to reach the mysterious lake which
puzzles scientists by not completely freezing even when the air temperature is
minus 60C. The team reached Oymyakon, the coldest settlement in the world
and were driving on from there in special KAMAZ vehicles.
