Japanese hunt monsters in lakes for nature documentary

MONSTERS who may be lurking in the murky depths of lakes in Cork and Kerry are being hunted by a Japanese film crew.

The five man crew, who are filming for Japan’s version of the Discovery channel, have come to Ireland after hearing tales of mysterious creatures patrolling the shores of some of our lakes.

While Ireland doesn’t boast the famous Nessie, the Japanese said they are very interested in investigating some of the sightings locals claim to have seen over the years.
