WELCOME TO THE CFZ BLOG NETWORK: COME AND JOIN THE FUN

Half a century ago, Belgian Zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans first codified cryptozoology in his book On the Track of Unknown Animals.

The Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) are still on the track, and have been since 1992. But as if chasing unknown animals wasn't enough, we are involved in education, conservation, and good old-fashioned natural history! We already have three journals, the largest cryptozoological publishing house in the world, CFZtv, and the largest cryptozoological conference in the English-speaking world, but in January 2009 someone suggested that we started a daily online magazine! The CFZ bloggo is a collaborative effort by a coalition of members, friends, and supporters of the CFZ, and covers all the subjects with which we deal, with a smattering of music, high strangeness and surreal humour to make up the mix.

It is edited by CFZ Director Jon Downes, and subbed by the lovely Lizzy Bitakara'mire (formerly Clancy), scourge of improper syntax. The daily newsblog is edited by Corinna Downes, head administratrix of the CFZ, and the indexing is done by Lee Canty and Kathy Imbriani. There is regular news from the CFZ Mystery Cat study group, and regular fortean bird news from 'The Watcher of the Skies'. Regular bloggers include Dr Karl Shuker, Dale Drinnon, Richard Muirhead and Richard Freeman.The CFZ bloggo is updated daily, and there's nothing quite like it anywhere else. Come and join us...

More on the Texas blue dogs

Our friend Naomi West one of our Texas representatives, writes to tell us:

Jon,
I found this tonight. It's the same footage of the "chupacabra" caught on tape by the cop but it has an excellent shot of the long snout! They slow the tape down.

Watch the video here

I just thought you might like to see it.



Indeed we do. I wish that the media would stop trying to claim that these blue dogs have anything to do with the chupacabra. We have been studying them for some years, and it is certain that they are coyotes of some description. Either coyotes with some strange skin condition, or coyotes in the very earliest stages of speciation..

That video is much better with them slowing it down.
I thing I can say is it has a hell of a over bite!

I must say I still think it is some sort of coyote or coydog with an overshot jaw.

"Regarding your comment about the correct terms: An overbite is also an overshot jaw. It has the upper teeth protruding. It is also called micrognathia, in that the lower jaw, or mandible, is smaller, thus making the upper jaw, or maxilla protrude. It is also called maxillary hyperplasia, meaning more growth to the maxilla, or mandibular hypoplasia, or less growth of the mandible."

This was taken from: http://www.sleddogcentral.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4047

This issue is also hereditary, due to the fact the animal will have problems eating properly.
