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.
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...

Thanks, Jon. But me? Ladylike? ROTFL.
However, I would love to read some more about those "Cats of Upper Minster" whenever Tim Matthews has time to write some more.
And, as I just wrote a few minutes ago, I'd also love to read some more from Oll Lewis.
Here, here! More from Tim and Oll please! Liz
And here's an idea if you want to raise money for the CFZ: allow people to appear in the stories for a fee (as positive characters obviously). You could auction the rights on eBay. I'm not sure I want to be in myself, but I bet people would pay to see Richard tackle a Nandi bear, or Jon suddenly appear in Upper Minster...
