Sea Serpents -- School-Age
Sea Serpents
Myths from around the world tell of gigantic sea serpents. Well known tales of sea serpents are the Scandinavian legend of the kraken and the Loch Ness monster in Scotland. Although tales of sea serpents have existed for thousands of years, no such creature has ever been captured.
Many of the sea serpent tales have the characteristics of actual marine animals. For example, the Giant squid has many of the charteristics of sea serpents when swimming on the surface of the water with its enourmous arms trailing behind it.
