This blasted recession is really beginning to hit. 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...
Richard Freeman's remarkable new book is now available. However, for some reason known only to themselves amazon.co.uk have listed it as taking 3-5 weeks to arrive.

Y'know, Jon, increasingly when I put up a blog discussing a composite cryptid category or a category with a series of mistaken observations as well as some possibly valid ones, you describe my blogs as about "A" Cryptid, as if I was saying all Freshwater monsters or all Sea monsters were "Only one thing."
Which is ridiculous.
Today's blog is a reprint of an earlier CFZ blog which integrally refers to TWO different sea monsters, one of which I take to be a mistake (A whale) and the other one I take to be the same as one of Heuvelmans' categories of Sea-serpents (the Marine Saurian) I use a variety of "Pristichampsus'" depictions to show how witnesses' impressions make some differences in the one category (the same as "Dr. Shuker's Leviathan) and then I use the opportunity to say why I think that Heuvelmans' and Champagne's Marine Saurians are two different things.
Which is actually three things, one of them a known species, but the larger category illustrated by five different depictions, with the goal of showing those five are all the same but different to the last two.
I should also mention that from the description Tim (Pristichampsus) gave of the last creature illustrated, he must also be a regular reader of the CFZ blog, among other things.
Best Wishes, Dale D.
