Nessie and Newt

[Caius Marcius]

You've likely already seen the new video of Nessie, the legendary 
Loch Ness Monster:

According to Newt Scamander's Fantastic Beasts, Nessie is 
actually "the world's largest kelpie" (a type of water-demon 
indigenous to Britain and Ireland), who "appears to have developed a 
positive thirst for publicity."  (p. xvii) The Office of 
Misinformation (within the Department for the Regulation and Control 
of Magical Creatures), whose purpose is to conceal evidence of 
magical beasts from Muggles, has waged a successful campaign to 
convince us that all photographic evidence of Nessie is fake (p. xx)

Perhaps Nessie's latest appearance was prompted by jealousy over all 
the media attention currently being lavished upon JKR, and so it is 
trying once more to return itself to the Muggles' limelight.
