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...

Unlike some of our competitors we are not going to try and blackmail you into donating by saying that we won't continue if you don't. That would just be vulgar, but our lives, and those of the animals which we look after, would be a damn sight easier if we receive more donations to our fighting fund. Donate via Paypal today...

CH-CH-CH-CHANGES

As everyone will no doubt have seen, this year has seen quite an upheaval here at the CFZ, and although we believe that most of these changes are for the better (some are purely for financial reasons, following the constraints forced upon us by the recession, and the disgraceful behaviour of some of our so-called friends) the upheaval in undeniable.

Whilst all of our UK subscribers have now received Animals & Men #46 the new format means it will be impossible to send out the magazine to our US Subscribers without yet another price hike, to an already over-high tariff.

So Naomi (God bless her) has come to the rescue. As soon as we have the WW safely out of the way, we will transfer the responsibility for US/Canadian subscriptions over to her. We will arrange for the US Office of the printer to send her magazines, and she will mail them out and then invoice us for the costs.

Although this does mean that there will be a few more weeks delay for the New World subscribers, it also means that very soon - for the first time - we shall be able to cut subscription rates across the US, Mexico and Canada, so our New World subscribers will no longer have to pay a premium for being on the opposite side of the Atlantic Ocean to us.

So every cloud does indeed have a silver lining....
