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...

OLL LEWIS: Yesterday’s News Today

http://cryptozoologynews.blogspot.com/

Stereoscopic Sunday is here! Red and cyan glasses at the ready; this week’s photo is of the ultimate showdown. Who will be victorious? The smart money is on Pikachu, as he has bested Mewtwo in the past, a feat that thus far no Doctor Who villain has proved capable of. (Cue long rant by Richard in the comments section graphically describing Pikachu’s potential demise when faced with a Dalek, probably).

Anyway, news:

Lizard Species Projects Ribs Outwards for Defence

Pecking order: rare birds on show

Volunteers called in as zoo strike intensifies

Bizarre-looking bat's strong bite

‘Bats’ not a creature you want to mess with, then.

RICHARD FREEMAN WRITES: Pikachu's attack is electricity. Electricity cannot harm somrthing in polyoncarbenated armour such as a Dalek. Infact early Daleks ran on electricity conducted through the metal floors of their city on Skaro.

I once attended a Science Fiction convention in Plymoth were someone had made a great little film in the style of the faux Japanese gameshow Banzai. You had to gues how verious pokemon would be killed. Pikachu had the possiblilty of being stabbed by a big butcher's knife, shot with a hand gun or having mass molecular desruption from being shot by a Dalek. He has shor by a Dalek and destroyed amoung much cheering from the crowd.

A Dalek can only really be bested by one foe...The Doctor.
