Considering some of the large fish in the Far East (Chinese Paddlefish, Mekong Catfish, etc) I wouldn’t be particularly surprised to find a new (or forgotten) species of large fish in this lake.

Although I would be even more thrilled if it turned out to be a new species of mammal ^-^

Still extraordinary claims do require extraordinary evidence, so I’ll have to contain my excitement until we at least see some footage.

i wouldn’t generally rule out reptiles because of cold water … there are plenty examples for amphibian and reptilian life in cold water. sea turtels are being sighted again and again in the northern hemisphere. and in the freezing waters of japanese ponds and rivers live giant salamanders, that are anything but warmblooded.

Could possibly be giant salamanders who can grow 6 to 8 feet in length and sometimes swim in a row like otters. They are only found in the far east I believe.

Cold water rules out reptiles, so it sounds like a mammal or a fish. On the other hand, dinosaurs were warm-blooded, too. Who knows?

Yes, this footage would be nice to see.

Thanks to Loren for posting this story here. The objects are not as clear as those in the Kanas Lake video of July 15th, 2007.

“Fins longer than bodies”, “Seal-like”…Could be plesiosaurs or a new seal that is unknown to this point. Maybe something we’ve never found bones of even. Footage please…

This is the one cryptozoology story that’s intrigued me in a long, long time. If they find something, this could trigger a whole stampede of cryptoexpeditions into unexplored Asian wilderness, backed by serious scientific institutions and money.

Very exciting!
