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/

On this day in 1983 one of the most audacious hoaxes of modern times came to fruition when German magazine Stern publishes extracts from ‘The Hitler Diaries’. Despite the initial excitement and endorsements from several handwriting experts the diaries are soon found to be slightly sloppy forgeries printed on modern paper, using modern ink and full of historical inaccuracies.
And now, the news:

Giant Crab May Have Pinched Record Title
Skunks, badgers enlisted to control Idaho pelicans...
Goat goes on rampage
Tiger-petting sessions
Bear saved from head-trapped-in-milk-can nightmare...
Octopus steals underwater camera from diver - while it's recording
Rattlesnake rodeo: 75 snakes on show ... and fried...
Crocodile delays water aerobics class
'Gigantic' scorpion fossil found in Fife
Clever crows can use up to three tools (Video)

Well there’s something to crow about, then.
