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.
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...

I really don't know how this story has gone from the CFZ bloggo to The Sun, Daily Mail etc...and there's nothing worse than being called a 'paranormal expert' when i couldn't give a toss about the bloody paranormal!! Oh for the power of the media...
I dare say this explains why the beer down there is so bloody awful (as I'm sure Mr Freeman can confirm); the locals can't cope with the good stuff.
I'm sure that if you research it, the Bigfoot sightings will coincide with the local hostelries having something like Tim Taylor's or Cropton beer on as a guest. Having said that, the effect may well be reproducible (an experiment for which I am prepared to volunteer in advance, as a Control Yorkshireman) and indeed a great deal more research ought to be performed on the matter.
Could it have been Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells?
How time appropiate!
