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...

Houdini the Bear Keeps Escaping Capture and Now Authorities Want to Kill Him!


 
Houdini the Bear Keeps Escaping Capture and Now Authorities Want to Kill Him!
 
Sign Now
 

There is a brown bear in Italy who is making waves by being "an escape genius", which has earned him the nickname Houdini. Houdini was caught by Italian rangers and then somehow got free from 3 electric fences and a four ft barrier! But because he got too close to people, the next time he is caught, authorities have ordered his death.
It makes sense that they don't want our friend Houdini too near to a town where he could become accustomed to people food and potentially endanger a community. But that certainly doesn't mean he should die!
Houdini is an Alpine Brown Bear — only 1 of about 50 of his kind in the area. It would not only be cruel to kill him, it would be tragic for the population!
Thank you,
Kelsey B.

P.S. Houdini is an endangered brown bear who keeps escaping his captors. Sign on to ask Italian authorities not to kill him if they catch him again.
