Did Apple's iOS Maps App Just Find The Loch Ness Monster? (Update: No They Did Not)

See update below.

Apple’s iOS Maps app was once criticized for displaying melting buildings and roads to nowhere. The mapping and navigation app may have now uncovered the famed Loch Ness Monster, according to The Mail.

A satellite image from Apple’s app shows a shadowy form that measures 100 feet long and seemingly has two giant flippers attached. Located just south of Dores, Scotland, the image was first spotted by two iPhone users at the end of 2013.
