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 have tried posting things on my blogs several times and nothing comes through: when I try to publish it always comes up a blank page.
Monday morning at Blog Central, and its all go. This afternoon at some point I will be interviewing Martin Stephenson, and tomorrow I am interviewing Dan Wooding, author of the newly reissued Rick Wakeman biography.Yesterday’s News Today

On this day in 2007 the tomb of the Jewish king Herod the Great was discovered.
And now the news:

Bristol Zoo statement regarding city centre mystery
Earlier this morning (13/4/12) we were called by the managers of Broadmead to investigate this unusual activity in the centre of Bristol. It appears that a car has been partially crushed by some huge creature, which has also left remarkable, unworldly footprints in the ground!
This is highly unusual and very unlike anything we have ever seen – the footprints are over three feet long and of a very bizarre shape. We are currently taking samples, measurements and other evidence to help us solve this exciting mystery over the coming weeks. Whatever this creature is, we hope to be able to bring it to Bristol Zoo to show the public in all its magnificence - this could be the start of something big and exciting for Bristol this summer!
