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/

It’s Friday so that mean’s it is time for me to dust off The Bumper Mammoth Book of Fascinating Facts and Necromancy for Boys and Girls, which I found in the restricted section of the CFZ library some months ago. Let's see what we have today....

British prime minister Gordon Brown possesses a number of different glass eyes for different occasions. For example, when promoting Britishness abroad he wears a glass eye with a union jack painted on it that he uses to unnerve foreigners, and one depicting the London Eye with a gigantic Brunel riding it like a penny-farthing to symbolise British innovation and invention. Problems were caused at the recent U.N. conference when he greeted Michelle Obama and Mrs Gadaffi after accidentally forgetting to take out the ‘special’ glass eye he uses only in private with his wife. Michelle Obama was so shocked by this obscenity that she forbade her husband from meeting with him, during the whole conference.

And now, the news:

Thresher shark is found on beach

White buck at home in the Forest

Fish to choose who wins house

Cross-eyed owl finds happiness

Giant snake to be removed from boat club

Frog Deformities: Sign of Parasites on the Rise?

50 cattle become 51 on way to Hawaii

Cat-alytic converter

That was very nearly a ‘cat’astrophy.
