 Cryptozoology: Nauelito — the sea monster Bariloche — Reappears

 Walking along the shore of Lake Nahuel Huapi, a woman captured the moment when a strange figure appeared out of the water. The video went viral on social media and caused consternation among residents of the Rio Negro community.

 Many years later, horror returned to Bariloche after the supposed reappearance of Nahuelito, the sea monster of Lake Nahuel Huapi. A resident of this Rio Negro village captured the moment when a strange figure appeared out of the water. After the images went viral on social media, hundreds of people agreed that it was indeed a creature.

As shown in the video, a figure appears out of the water, presumably Nauelito, a kind of snake that hides under the water. Although experts note that it could have been a plesiosaur, locals say that several times they saw a small "hump" peeking out from under the surface.

 Moreover, Silvina, who is responsible for posting the video on social networks, says that she saw it while walking around the reserve, and she managed to record it, despite the fact that it was difficult to use a mobile phone for this. 

"I saw him move and then disappear, leaving behind a ring similar to the one that fish leave when they jump and then dive into the water," she told El Cordillerano newspaper.

In addition, the woman says that she lives with her family about 23 kilometers from the place where Nauelito appeared, and that "this is not the first time she sees strange things in this area."

Based on the images, other locals also claimed to have seen Nauelito, although they were unable to record it "because they didn't have their phones with them" or simply because the beast "left too quickly."

According to the residents of Bariloche, the legend of the "Nauelito" originated with indigenous peoples who believed that this creature lived in Lake Nahuel-Huapi. However, this theory became relevant in 1910, when George Garrett, a man who sailed, said that the "animal" had a length of 5 to 7 meters and towered about 2 meters above the water. To this was added the story of Martin Sheffield, a gold hunter from the USA, who claimed to have seen large footprints on the shore of the lake. This led to a hunt for this creature in 1922, which was led by famous hunters from all over the country. Despite their efforts, which had an international resonance, they did not find him.

 Cryptozoology: Nahuelito - The Bariloche Sea Monster - Reappears

 While walking along the shores of lake Nahuel Huapi, a woman captured the moment in which a strange figure emerged from the water. The video went viral on social media and spread terror among residents of the Rio Negro community.

 After many years, terror returned to Bariloche following the alleged reappearance of Nahuelito, the lake Nahuel Huapi sea monster. A resident of this Rio Negro community captured the moment at which a strange figure emerged from the water. After the images went viral on social media, hundreds of people agreed that it was indeed the creature.

 As shown in the video, a figure emerges from the water, presumably Nahuelito, a kind of serpent that hides underwater. While experts note that it could also be a plesiosaur, locals say that they've seen a little 'hump' peeking through the surface in several instances.

 Moreover, Silvina - in charge of sharing the video on social media - says that she saw it while strolling through the nature reserve, and succeeded in recording it, despite the difficulty of using a cellphone to do so. "I saw it move and then it vanished, leaving behind a ring like the ones fish leave when they jump and then submerge," she told El Cordillerano newspaper.

 Furthermore, the woman says that she lives with her family some 23 kilometers distant from where Nahuelito appeared and that "it isn't the first time she's seen strange things in the area."

 Based on the images, other local residents also claimed seeing Nahuelito, although they weren't able to record it "because they didn't have their phones on them" or simply because the beast 'departed too quickly."

 As told by Bariloche residents, the legend of "Nahuelito" arises from the indigenous peoples, who believed the creature lived in lake Nahuel Huapi. However, the theory gained relevance in 1910 when George Garret, a man sailing the waters, said that the "animal" measured between 5 and 7 meters long and stood some 2 meters over the water. Added to this was the account of Martin Sheffield, a U.S. gold hunter who claimed seeing large footprints on the shores of the lake. This resulted in a 1922 hunt for the creature, led by renowned hunters from all over the country. Despite their efforts, which had international repercussions, they did not find it.
