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...

MARIA CLANCY: Cannibal King

Yale researchers believe T. Rex may have been a cannibal, eating its rivals after fights to the death. Palaeontologists realised bite marks on Tyrannosaur fossils could only have been made by other rexes, and by feeding rather than fighting. They most likely wanted to take over their rivals' territory and food sources, and took the defeated rex as the first of many free meals.

NEW GUEST BLOGGER: Maria Clancy

I am very pleased to introduce you all to a new guest blogger, namely my Mum Maria Clancy who not only introduced me to the world of cryptozoology and Forteana when I was still but a babe in arms, but also came up with the following poem:



Arachne the spider has no legs;

She's not like any other.

She'll nip you if you get to close

Then blame it on her brother.

EDITORIAL BOOZE-FEST 2








THIS pint is also a Phoenix Breweries one; it's called a Double Gold, and I have to say, it's rather delicious, hence my inability to wait till after the photo before drinking it.










On the blog today:


More yokai from Richard F, a new addition to the CFZ menagerie, the RSPB tantalise Jonboy, we have a new guest blogger, and the ufologists wonder what on earth created the pattern at Bucks Mills. Enjoy....
