Story

Extract:
Mexico are searching for
a Loch Ness-style
monster they say could be living in a reservoir near a dam in the city of
Atizapan de Zaragoza. The creature has reportedly been seen by locals swimming
in the lake. According to reports, the civic leaders and police have been
inundated with sightings. One photo which is believed to show the monster has
gone viral after being posted on the local town hall website. The
photograph appears to reveal what appears to be a dark body which could have a
fin or a curved back coming from the waters of Madin Dam Basin.
Local town hall
officials have now ordered police to patrol the lake and find out the cause of
the sightings. Local media quoted Atizapan Town
Hall who said in a statement: "This fact adds to comments from residents
of Atizapan, who assure that a dinosaur lives at the bottom of the dam, which
protects the place.
Some believe it
could be a huge crocodile or a large blob of faeces from sewage water.
Nevertheless, local authorities are taking the matter seriously and aim to get to the bottom of the sightings.”
From the local Paper:
Reports
of a strange animal in the Madín Dam, the municipal police of Atizapán
announced that they will do special rounds.
The municipality of Atizapán de Zaragoza, in the State of
Mexico, declared that it has received news of several alleged sightings of a
large animal in the Madín Dam. Presumably, the neighbors would point out that
it is a “dinosaur”.
The strange report was made on March 19 through the
municipality’s official Facebook account. According to the publication, local
authorities received intriguing reports about an animal in the dam.Neighbors of
the area surrounding the Madín Dam reported the sighting of a large silhouette
in the depths of the aquatic body.
The government of Atizapán also pointed out
that several inhabitants “say that a dinosaur dedicated to protecting the place
lives at the bottom of the dam.” Therefore, the local government will carry out
patrols around the dam: , others commented that for at least 30 years there
have been suspicions of “a large carp” living in the dam,

Science however may have the answer.
“It was found that the polluted water of the Madín Dam
gave rise to embryolethality, embryotoxicity, congenital abnormalities, and
oxidative stress on the common carp embryos.”.

I suspect a mutated large fish is the resident of
the dam rather than a dinosaur. What do you think?
