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...

OLL LEWIS: Yesterday’s News Today

http://cryptozoologynews.blogspot.com/

“What happened yesterday in the world of news related to cryptozoology?” you might ask (well you might if it wasn’t such a mouthful) well I’m about to tell you, and I hope you appreciate it because I’m typing this with only one eye today as the other one is too sore to even open at the moment. I could regale you all with the exciting and fascinating story of why my eye is sore this evening and I’m sure you would all be most entertained by this tale derring-do, adventures on the high seas and me singing the king of Spain’s beard, but alas it would just be a pointless tall tale to cover up the fact that I’ve been rubbing my eye too much. Anyway you’re all due a film of the week; this week’s film is ‘1408’, which I recommend you watch alone in a dark room and if you have to stay in a hotel at some point this week I suggest bringing the film along with you to play on your laptop. It is a rare thing, a horror movie that will actually disturb you rather than grossing you out or making you jump and John Cusack gives perhaps his best ever performance. I’ve wasted enough of your time now, in the words of Jeff Lynne ‘here is the news’:

Mystery animals spotted in Palisades
Fancy watching real pond life?
Hellhound stalking Cannock Chase?
Wisconsin Cougar Confirmed
And
Trinidad rancher finds mutilated cow

Apparently, it was a scene of ‘udder’ carnage.
