A sizeable statue of a legendary Argentine lake monster known as Nahuelito will soon loom over where the mysterious creature is said to reside. The fantastic cryptid said to be a plesiosaur-like animal akin to the iconic depiction of the Loch Ness Monster, has been a part of the country's contemporary folklore for over a century after a pair of strange sightings made headlines in the 1920s. To this day, multiple visitors to Nahuel Huapi Lake have reported seeing, and in some cases filming, odd aquatic anomalies thought to be the now-beloved 'monster.'
