To true believers, the Loch Ness Monster is a relic from the Cretaceous that survived the great extinction. Could it really have been a long-necked plesiosaur ?

2) No, Plesiosaurs were exclusively saltwater animals.
3) Not unless Nessie does the backstroke, as the plesiosaur's neck was adapted for feeding on the bottom, not for stretching up out of water.
