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 1866 H.G. Wells was born. If you have never read any of Wells's stories you are now hereby ordered to rectify this; once you've done so I'm sure you'll agree with me that he is the best sci-fi author to ever put pen to paper.

FACINATING FACT: Wells is the only science-fiction author to have had a city and cathedral named after him, the city of Wells in Somerset was previously named Fontanetum before it changed its name in honour of the author (this is completely true and you can look it up on Wikipedia if you do not believe me).

And now, the news:

'Hannibal' swan kills 15 birds
Sad demise of Cedric the Tasmanian devil sets back...
Lost tiger population discovered in Bhutan mountai...
Pelican sighting on Læsø
Big cat on prowl in Forest
Storm Water Is a Silent Marine Species Killer
New frog species discovered in Arnhem Land

Okay, this is stretching the link a bit and perhaps a little racist of me to link something to do with frogs to something to do with the French, but I'd not be doing my job right if I didn't post something from 'Allo, 'Allo here would I?
