TODAY'S BIG CAT NEWS

The hunt for British Big Cats attracts far more newspaper-column inches than any other cryptozoological subject. 

There are so many of them now that we feel that they should be archived by us in some way, so we are publishing a regular round-up of the stories as they come in. 

The worldwide mystery cat phenomenon (or group of phenomena, if we are to be more accurate) is not JUST about cryptozoology. At its most basic level it is about the relationship between our species and various species of larger cat. That is why sometimes you will read stories here that appear to have nothing to do with cryptozoology but have everything to do with human/big cat interaction. As committed Forteans, we believe that until we understand the nature of these interactions, we have no hope of understanding the truth that we are seeking.

    FORTEAN BIRD NEWS FROM THE WATCHER OF THE SKIES


    What has Corinna's column of fortean bird news got to do with Cryptozoology?

    Well, everything actually!
    In an article for the first edition of Cryptozoology Bernard Heuvelmans wrote that cryptozoology is the study of 'unexpected animals' and following on from that perfectly reasonable assertion, it seems to us that whereas the study of out-of-place birds may not have the glamour of the hunt for bigfoot or lake monsters, it is still a perfectly valid area for the Fortean zoologist to be interested in.

    THE GONZO BLOG FLIM FLAM MAN IS....

    The Gonzo Daily - Friday
     
    Yesterday as an odd one. I  fell over again, and spent most of the day hors de combat. The pigeon, lasted through the day, and this morning Beth from Hartland Wildlife Rescue came and gave us a brief lesson on handfeeding baby pigeons. I have only ever handreared softbills before, and they are easy cos all you have to do is wave your hand above them to stimulate the gaping reflex. However, pigeons are different; the adult regurgitates the contents of its crop into the baby's mouth. However Beth gave us all a lesson in what to do, and the little girl (it is a female apparently) is doing fine. After a day's rest yesterday (sorry to Jim and Andrea, both of whom I had to raincheck) so am I.
     
     
    Tommy James, Jon Anderson, Yes, Hawkwind, Scott Walker, Queen, Merrell Fankhauser and Daevid Allen fans had better look out! The latest issue of Gonzo Weekly (#101) is now available to read at www.gonzoweekly.com, and to download at http://www.gonzoweekly.com/pdf/.
     
    It has Tommy James on the cover, and features an interview with him about his life, work, political campaigning back in the 1960s and what it was like having a manager with more than a few links to the Mafia. But there's more! There is a message from Daevid Allen, and Merrell Fankhauser responds to some strange signals off the Malibu coast. ET? One never knows. Doug Harr critiques the new Queen DVD, we send Thom the World Poet to a Desert Island, and Jon discusses the new Scott Walker/Sunn o))) collaboration and much to his surprise finds that it is Scott's best work for decades. Carl Portman is our guest book reviewer, and he takes a look at the new Ozzy Osbourne biography. There are also new shows from the multi-talented Neil Nixon at Strange Fruit and from M Destiny at Friday Night Progressive, and the massively talented Jaki and Tim are back with their submarine and Maisie the cow. There is also a collection of more news, reviews, views, interviews and turtles having a snooze (OK, no soporific chelonians, but I got carried away with things that rhymed with OOOOS) than you can shake a stick at. And the best part is IT's ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!

    THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS AS SAFE AS MILK

    The Gonzo Daily - Thursday
     
    Saskia turned up yesterday clutching a damp shoebox containing a baby pigeon about ten days. It has refused to feed or drink using traditional methods, so we have force fed and watered it, and it is still alive, alert and apparently healthy this lunchtime. That is more than can be said for me, but I am not going to bring everyone down by bellyaching. Julia the happy medium is here again for a couple of days and so with spirit healers and recalcitrant columbinids my life is fairly full at the moment...

    THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS HAVING A SENIOR MOMENT

    The Gonzo Daily - Wednesday
     
    I apologise to anyone who was planning to go and see me talk in Scotland on Friday, but I shan't be there. Due to all sorts of things with which I will not bore you, the situation has changed up there, and when I was given the chance to gracefully back out with no ill will on either side, I gratefully took it. I agreed to do the gig about six months ago when an uncharacteristic burst of bonhomie on my part coincided with the invitation. But the truth is, my physical condition is getting slowly worse; I am in pain to a greater or lesser extent most of the time, and my days of gallivanting across the country to conferences and conventions are - I think - largely in the past. I wish the conference organisers well with the rest of the event, and look forward to hearing how it went.
     
    In home news, Saskia has rescued a baby pigeon, and I am just waiting here on tenterhooks to discover whether it survived the night.

    THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS A LITTLE UNHINGED

    The Gonzo Daily - Tuesday
    www.gonzomultimedia.co.uk/about.html
    And so another day begins. Tamara has just arrived and she has a long day of aviary cleaning and tortoise weighing ahead of her. I finally got my new glasses yesterday from the Tesco opticians in Barnstaple, and - as we were in Tesco - Corinna and I did some shopping. As Corinna was in the queue at the checkout I went over to the waiting area, tripped and fell. My mobility is so crappy these days that I am afraid the day will shortly be here when I have to have a wheelchair in public. Sad but true.
    I really liked much of the first album by the Ting Tings about five years ago, although the follow-up was disappointing. The third album was released yesterday, and I so pent last night listening to it on Spotify whilst I attempted to write deathless prose. God it is awful! I hate to say so, but I can find no redeeming characteristics whatsoever. The inventive spark that made the first album so engaging has been replaced by layers of anodyne Protools funk. The witty and sassy lyrics of the first album are now replaced by such dull platitudes that, writing this the next morning, I can't remember any of them. The album apparently took months to make in Ibitha. Martin, Marianne and I could have done the same thing in a weekend at my place. No wonder the music business is disappearing up its own arse!

    FORTEAN BIRD NEWS FROM THE WATCHER OF THE SKIES

    What has Corinna's column of fortean bird news got to do with Cryptozoology?

    Well, everything actually!
    In an article for the first edition of Cryptozoology Bernard Heuvelmans wrote that cryptozoology is the study of 'unexpected animals' and following on from that perfectly reasonable assertion, it seems to us that whereas the study of out-of-place birds may not have the glamour of the hunt for bigfoot or lake monsters, it is still a perfectly valid area for the Fortean zoologist to be interested in.
