The Unique Serpent of Silver Lake
School children know that water occupies a greater percentage of planet earth than land does. Salt and fresh water cover 71% of earth’s surface. In 1885, a serpent was sighted in Silver Lake, NY, throwing the townspeople into panic and drawing visitors to the quiet resort community. Discovering an unknown animal in a lake is not a common experience, nor are sightings of strange aquatic animal life, but this one was very unusual. It only had a life span of two years and the last sighting was not when it was in lake, but when it was out of the water.
