I wouldn't call it a theory, more a myth. It's a bit like the one about the moon being made of cheese, there's no logical reason behind it, just something someone thought up.

Interesting point, I used myth and theory in the post because I wasn't quite sure what to class it as either, calling it a myth seems pretty accurate because the stories have been around for so long and involve mythical creatures a lot of the time. However I think it could also lean toward being a theory purely because of the people that claim to have gone and groups that spent a lot of time and money trying to find said myth.
