After watching this documentary I am convinced I have seen a Dobhar-Chu'. The sighting was back in 1985 first week of September and my very first fishing trip to Southern Ireland. Walking a river bank in search of a suitable place to fish I disturbed what I thought at the time was an otter , it's length at full stretch as it loped off away from me along the exposed river bank was well in excess of 6 foot, a lot longer than any of the cattle which were grazing along the elevated river bank. On later visits to Ireland I have seen normal sized otters around Balinamore these were 3 to 4 feet in length. I would love to visit Ireland and retrace my steps, retired now I'm pretty sure I could go to the exact spot of my original sighting back in September 1985.🍀🤞
Sounds to me like this might be an ice age version of an otter ancestor or maybe a Canadian or Alaskan otter,since they are the currently biggest ones still around. They can get 3,4 feet long,maybe this is one we haven't seen as they might be that rare. This does sound like a mega-fauna ice age otter species that got isolated to the island and somehow has survived to this time there.
Northern sea otters can stretch over 5 feet in length, so it's not surprising that a secretive creature like the Dobhar-Chu' could evade humans and their cameras. There are many wild and remote places in the world, and if I were an animal, I'd avoid humans if at all possible. I've little doubt that some species not yet discovered or those declared extinct may be hiding themselves away.
Enhydriodon omoensis was a prehistoric Giant Otter, there are many things that we yet do not know, and sometimes myths and legends turn out to be actual facts lost in time and folklore
Well, it depends on if people can make a documented species from the data gathered or else it’s just spec bio sadly.. but i love folklore and such for that uncertainty. I do agree on that there is much yet to learn, yet alone in and near the waters where we don’t settle or traffic
did you hear about the extinct bird that evolved back to existence? not saying this is the same but could, especially knowing that ireland is home to native species of otters
Everything here in evidence that's vettable says this has to be a descendant of the otter species you menton. Thank you for the scientific name and proof that they did exist,and this could be them. And yes,there are legends involving animals that ended up being proved a real animal.
That recording sounds so much like an otter call. I'm convinced this is a megafauna ice age otter species that got isolated to that area and survived. Or is it a super version of either an Alaskan or Canadian otter that somehow made it to that area during one of the post mini ice ages. Alaskan and Canadian otter are big,3,4 feet long,not like the little 2 foot ones you see off California. 2 more feet isnt a big leap since this animal is decribed at 6 feet,at least. What a find of a lifetime to find one of these and document their existence. I'm just completely convinced this is a real world animal,we're still discovering animals we didnt know existed.
Not long ago I watched a video on the evolution of mega feral cats in Australia, considering they descend from domestic cats and have attained their size in only a couple of hundred years evolution in a place where they have no predators... Why not giant otters?
There is giant otters but imagine if you have a genetic disorder which made a lone abandoned giant otter become a lot bigger than even the amazonian giant otters....
No one is saying it's 14 feet in length or 1000 pounds! It's got four legs as well so it's not a seal, it's definitely an otter of some kind? Maybe new to science? The best pics show it's obviously the size of a medium dog or giant otter
yes in Australia the stories of the river monster BUNYIP have been attributed to seals lost up rivers, but they got lost a long long way up fresh water rivers...

I went to Trinity College and have a degree in biology and I’m here to say a lot of nothing.” I don’t believe that the dobhar chú is anything more than old stories of people getting attacked by wolves or wild dogs down by the river or lake, and is only amplified by people who want there to be more to Ireland.

Trail cams would be ideal... Infrared easily capture these giant otters. Again very dangerous. Anyone would not stand a snowball chance in hell defeating one of these.think giant swimming, honey badger...😂❤❤
I enjoy these docos except for the prolonged interviewing of ‘ skeptics’ who have never looked for it or researched the actual creature they are happy to deny. It seems to be a common theme in them.
Cryptozooology fascinates me. I am luck to live in a village with large desolate areas nearby. I spend many hours cycling in the area, a stealthy way to travel, not scaring wildlife and giving the opportunity to see what a motorist wouldn't see. We do see the usual wild deer, foxes, hawks, rabbits. I have sadly not yet seen anything unusual ? But if and when I do ? I would be in a dilemma not wishing to draw attention to any previously unseen animals, wildlife, species ?
You don't want to see anything unusual... a friend of mine has had numerous terrifying encounters with dogmen in Cheshire and he would much rather not 🙏
Male northern sea otters can get over 5 feet long, so it doesn't surprise me that such a huge animal might be able to find an Irish home and survive. The longer I live on this planet, the more I'm sure that there are things out there we have no clue about.
Have these people never heard the existence of trail cameras? That Ronan guy, I'm sure I saw him in The Fast Show, very Shakespeare, very thespian. While I'm here, Big Foot is probably a Bear, they sometimes stand upright...simple really.
Any water weasel species that large. Can easily take a large man, sheep, even dogs. They have power to weight ratio 5 , 6 times ours. Meaning no chance if it wants too.
As far as anyone knows, the otter was probably eating a free meal from a fresh dead person. We don't know if she was killed or had drowned or died from heart attack. Could likely be a scavenged meal. Also the crypto fella sounds a bit of the "drama queen"'. Cheers
I think it means the stuffed otter in the end and the Dobhar-chú is just an over exaggeration of the regular otter. The modern word for otter is Madra Uisce or Madadh Uisce. But my grandparents used to call an otter a Dobhar-chú. Considering the lack of mentioning until the 17th century, I don't think it ever ment a water monster. Possibly a giant species of prehistoric otter may have survived and was hunted to extinction. But I doubt it cause of lack of evidence. That sound, could be fucking anything tbh
Hello I hope you're well, I've given it a little thought and I'll suggest it's an ocean going giant otter that can dive deeper and can attack large prey,otters are weasel type creatures so would be formidable, there are actual sea otters so just a larger more aggressive type that hunts large fish
@@junglie thanks for the reply yeah you're right,I was suggesting that otters have the potential to be large (Amazon) and can be sea going ( sea otters), so perhaps there's something like it we haven't seen and when say that,if you saw something large and furry in the sea in that area you'd immediately think it was a seal so it probably wouldn't even register
@@timegasm1462 potentially, but they remained cleared for agriculture. Then the silly billies put in plantations of Sitka pine which isn't even native so now the vast vast majority of forests on the island are not native
Could you have North American Otters in Ireland somehow? We have Otters in our pond out back (65 Acre pond) that are easily 6' long but they are not bad tempered what so ever and before I became crippled they would come right up to my Canoe and take fish right out of my hand.
According to your ancient recordings. This giant otter kills any other competition. Also, it's not off the sandy banks but the Rocky Island of shoe...look there...
Naa not having it I live n fish In lreland this is some Darby O’Gill stuff we have otters and there’s sea others that’s the height of it No Leprechauns, Fairy’s, live Here 😂 We love cabbage n Hairy Bacon lol😂
Its clearly related to the otter in some way, its coat is made for keeping water out like otters and beavers. Its head is closer to a dog and its bigger than any otter besides the biggest sea otters. Its been greatly exaggerated though and is no man eater! Its probably around 25 pounds and hunts large pike but its no monster or mystery cryptid that is hunting humans!
How big can an otter get if it has no predators and lives a long time? Where I live are bobcats. I have seen ones no larger than a good sized house cat, I have also seen one the height of a golden retriever with a head the size of a nerf basketball.
He said he saw very large droppings, so surely if you want to identify it you collect it and try send it off to be analysed. Or at least try compare it to other animals? Wouldn't that be quite easy way to identify it, thats the way that big cats got identified in England
There a few surviving stories of these sacred isles of Britain that could be more important to tell and protect than that of Mystic Ireland ! Ireland for the Irish. Erin Go Bragh !
The American Eskimo's have a tale of a being that is half human and half otter... As do at least one Native American tribe that I can think of! I think otter tales must be rather common throughout the planet.
Never heard of it...and I've lived in Ireland for 60 years. There is a real monster at the end of my garden though.... a Leprechaun called Paddy. Viewing arranged by prior appointment for €2450 per hour... excluding VAT.
Giant Otters are still around in South America so why not Ireland? That recorded sound is one that giant Otters make. Someone brought some back in 16th to 18th century. They still exist at 6 ft weighing 75 lbs. A rich noble could have brought in a family group then let them go. Then again maybe whatever it is sometime will pass through portals so is rarely seen.
Could it not be a leopard seal or the like?? Just "fishing" 😜 it's obviously something that could be caught if cameras were left there for a while?? People love the mystique of something "other" to spice up boring everyday life.
I was on lough ree a few years back with n about 50 footnof water the boat got bumped hard i thought it was a stump or somthing when i looked somthing about 4 feet thick came up about 15 foot from the boat the water was calm soni could see it was about 20 foot long roughly. There are things in the big lakes for sure
It ain’t hard to get big eye in the middle of the night. My buddy told me all about he swears he seen the mountain line sitting on the branch, looking at it one night when he was out raccoon hunting. In reality, we think he saw a bobcat just a little bit bigger than a house cat
Otters need lot of energy to survive, lots of fish! If there's a giant Otter on Ireland, where are the giant Trouts? If they exist, how much does a visitor's fishing permit cost and how do I get it?
giant otters exist and could have made it to the island or have been brought back to irland by seamen or any travelors and released many many years ago who has grown to what it is today remember giant otters can grow 6 or 7 feet and this one has grown as big as it can
The ocean is vast, why not gaint otters living on the coastline of western Ireland, where a not too populated area such as this exist. Prefect place, Indeed.
The thumbnail picture is a young horse covered in river mud having a splash around in a cool refreshing river. I've seen this kinda thing many times. It's certainly isn't a "river monster" lol.
People like you are insane. There are animals we have yet to identify. That's the real world. The mental gymnastics you have to perform to come to such a conclusion is almost impressive. Animals like these may well fall into extinction before we get the chance to protect them, and people like you will be to blame.
so unlike the usual tall tales, the Dobhar Chu has scat, recorded calls, a discovered kill, local attestations from history and credible witnesses. This is an undiscovered animal not a boogeyman. And why a "skeptic" and a mincing storyteller should have any part in this I do not. A professional cryptozoologist should be searching for the Dobhar Chu and with no doubt in my mind they'll find it.
I say, If it's apart of the mythology and folklore of the place then it is the local wildlife. Leave it be to do it's part in the ecosystem. That is unless it considered your livestocks, you, your family and your neighbors as part of the ecosystem.
How DARE you! OK, I'll be the first to admit my mother-in-law isn't the most beautiful woman around, and she could stand to lose a few pounds. Well, maybe a couple of hundred pounds. However She isn't a terrible monster, although she did beat me into a bloody, blubbering pulp those two times. I was partly to blame for that, I had been warned not to venture too close to her enclosure and not to make eye contact. Despite all this, she is still worthy of basic human dignity and respect.
I am second hand offended on behalf of the “slow thinker”. Our brains work amazingly fast and an animal attack may seem like it lasts a long time but are usually over in moments. I have no doubt they could have been snatched and dragged, and while articulated it seemed like he pandered his options and realized he had a knife, that would have been seconds or fractions of seconds in execution.
How comes there's always just 1 of these things and everybody seems to see the same one. They've been seen for hundreds of years but never a dead body, droppings, small ones or maybe an actual viable population. Just one... living for hundreds of year. And if there's is more than one... there is a population and there must be physical evidence over the many years.
Ok. I'm Irish. This is absolute bullshit. But can I have whatever they are on! Actually I have had several pints of a certain tar colored beverage before seeing this shit.

Has anyone considered that is was a seal.... I have seen seals come more inland than you'd think. They too are carnivorous opportunists.
The thumbnail picture is a young horse covered in river mud having a splash around in a cool refreshing river. I've seen this kinda thing many times. It's certainly isn't a "river monster" lol.
Um no that's no horse it's a otter eating a fish
People like you are insane. There are animals we have yet to identify. That's the real world. The mental gymnastics you have to perform to come to such a conclusion is almost impressive. Animals like these may well fall into extinction before we get the chance to protect them, and people like you will be to blame.
so unlike the usual tall tales, the Dobhar Chu has scat, recorded calls, a discovered kill, local attestations from history and credible witnesses. This is an undiscovered animal not a boogeyman. And why a "skeptic" and a mincing storyteller should have any part in this I do not. A professional cryptozoologist should be searching for the Dobhar Chu and with no doubt in my mind they'll find it.

It is the wow dragonflight tuskarr mount
Love how they say huge wild places when they are on an Island smaller than the American state of Indiana!!
I say, If it's apart of the mythology and folklore of the place then it is the local wildlife. Leave it be to do it's part in the ecosystem. That is unless it considered your livestocks, you, your family and your neighbors as part of the ecosystem.
Lol the couple at the start have 2 different stories. Then the guy who's an artist says while drawing I had to use imagination. 😂😂😂
Connor mcgregor should be in rehab, not hanging out in the lake
How DARE you!
OK, I'll be the first to admit my mother-in-law isn't the most beautiful woman around, and she could stand to lose a few pounds. Well, maybe a couple
of hundred pounds. However She isn't a terrible monster, although she did beat me into a bloody, blubbering pulp those two times. I was partly to blame for that, I had been warned not to venture too close to her enclosure and not to make eye contact.
Despite all this, she is still worthy of basic human dignity and respect.
Well if it was a giant sea otter it’s got to be dead by now, it’s twenty years old. Oh maybe it’s a silke ! 😊
So it’s an air Breather . If enough people were to go to the lake at one time they would be able to see it .
and it had 4 arses, and no knees, and fire in its belly
I am second hand offended on behalf of the “slow thinker”. Our brains work amazingly fast and an animal attack may seem like it lasts a long time but are usually over in moments. I have no doubt they could have been snatched and dragged, and while articulated it seemed like he pandered his options and realized he had a knife, that would have been seconds or fractions of seconds in execution.
at 23 mins, irish guy needs a map, im scottish dont need a map in ireland
I wonder if anyone tried actually snare or cage trapping this thing for scientific purposes
What about the Silkies?
A South American water tiger is documented by taking a young boy and disembowled him it's different from the king otter.
Mr. Peppy

Ahhh ok
Funny as fk 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Shure: Ireland's Cross Breed Lake Monster Captured ! Have you read what you wrote ?
I thought you're Chanel said it was captured. Click bait? I won't watch any more of this chanel.
How comes there's always just 1 of these things and everybody seems to see the same one. They've been seen for hundreds of years but never a dead body, droppings, small ones or maybe an actual viable population. Just one... living for hundreds of year. And if there's is more than one... there is a population and there must be physical evidence over the many years.

💡💡💡Use a drone and cameras‼️‼️‼️
Ok. I'm Irish. This is absolute bullshit. But can I have whatever they are on! Actually I have had several pints of a certain tar colored beverage before seeing this shit.
