In this installment of Sasquatch Tracks, the team is joined by naturalist Adrian Shine, one of Scotland's most renowned researchers into the famous enigma at Loch Ness and an expert on the history of sightings of sea serpents throughout history.

A long-time Loch Ness researcher who has spent more than five decades studying the ecology, physics, and mythology of deep lakes, Shine is known internationally for leading the 1987 Operation Deepscan sonar survey at the famous Scottish lake. Since that time, Shine has guided more than 1,000 students and volunteers in fieldwork and collaborated with researchers from over 20 universities.

In his latest book, A Natural History of Sea Serpents, Shine explores centuries of sea-monster accounts through scientific investigation and historical analysis, offering case resolutions that he believes not only help to shed light on the sea monster mystery, but also help to "vindicate" the witnesses and their sightings.
