It ain't Nessie so

I was interested to read about the court battle over Nessie centres (your report, 1 July). However, instead of fighting over who has the "right" to promote Nessie, there should be moves to provide more protection for the famous cryptid.

Readers may be interested to know that Champ - the beloved "sea monster" of Vermont's Lake Champlain (USA) - is officially protected under law, thanks to the state governments of Vermont and New York.
