Nahuelito, the monster of Nahuel Huapi Lake, in Argentina reappeared.
Apparently someone sent an envelope to "El Cordillerano", a local newspaper from Bariloche city, which lays next to the lake, with three photos of
the monster and a note wich says more or less this:
"It's not a log with odd shapes, it's not a wave, finally Nahuelito showed us his face. Nahuel Huapi Lake, Saturday 15 April, 9:00. I won't give
my name to avoid future inconveniences"
Here's the only pic of the three I could find:

What do you think?
I like the picture, I find it a bit scary
By the way, I travel there almost a month ago, but didn't see anything
Maybe next time.
Here's a link, only in spanish, I'm sorry.

Looks VERY photoshoped to me.
IMO. It looks like a close up pic of a toy or something, then that pic was meshed on a pic of the lake.

Im with librasleep on this one; looks photoshoped to me too. Besides I do not know of any creature that would be able travel like that. Even the
large anaconda snakes travel side to side as onto the ground in the water.

It looks like that thing off that movie tremors.
Do think its a fake though. Anything with a body like that would move sideways not up and down. Thats just silly.

Same as Schmidt1989, looks just as bad as any of the Loch Ness monster pics that we've all seen. I keep wanting these "monsters" to be real but
they all seem to be just bad photoshop pictures

That looks so fake.
Not to mention the fact that animals cannot move like that...

I'm with everyone else. Fake. Not only because it looks fake, but because it doesn't make sense (As sveral other posters also said).
A snake swims by side-to-side motion.
The creature shown in the picture uses up and down motion to "swim" (Like a caterpillar moves on land). This motion will make it extremely difficult
- if not impossible - to propel itself in the water.
Not only is the picture pretty bad, but it's also scientifically questionable...

They state in the blurb that there was three photos received. It would be nice to see the other two for comparison.
Although the photo in question seems suspect, two more shots could help with the conclusion.
Any word on the other two photos anyone?

I could find only one of the other two pics allegedly taken of the monster.
It doesn't add more than the other I think, more or less the same...

In that first pic, I swear they took it about a foot out into the water, you can see the waves lapping on the shore!
Weak hoax, to say the least.

It might just be me, but in the photo Peronimlin posted there seems to be something holding up the head. But then again, it's possible i'm seeing
things.

Yeah, it does look like something is holding the head up. Good eye Hippo.
A blow up of the picture may help on the hoax side. Some may argue that it could be algae or some type of seaweed, but with the big possibility of
this being a hoax to begin with, I say thats probably something holding the head up.
