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...

PHOTOSHOPPED NAGA




These were sent to me with absolutely no explanation except the caption `Five headed snake in Bangalore`. Anyone know where they came from?

If these pictures are fakes - and its impossible to say with absolute certainty without examining the originals - then I know of certain specialist software programmes that could have been used to do it, as I use them on a daily basis as part of my business.

There are a few things about the pictures which make me suspicious. For instance, the texture of the skin on some of the heads is identical; something that I would imagine wouldn't occur in real life. By deft use of cloning, warping and texturing tools it would be relatively easy to produce something like this.

Who sent it, and why? Probably it was mailed by someone who either wants to kick-start a cryptozoological mystery and thinks these pics are good enough to do just that (which they aren't, in my opinion)or by someone whose been given them, genuinely thinks they're real and wants to draw the CFZ's attention to them. Their seeming desire for anonymity was probably precipitated by their desire not to be labelled Prat of the Week if they turned out to be fakes.
