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...

CRYPTOLINK: Bigfoot sighting reported in Michigan's U.P.

A word about cryptolinks: we are not responsible for the content of cryptolinks, which are merely links to outside articles that we think are interesting (sometimes for the wrong reasons), usually posted up without any comment whatsoever from me. This post, however, is particularly interesting and the author should be congratulated...


Bigfoot sightings date back to the 1800s, when missionaries reported seeing giant, hairy man-like creatures in Washington state. There have been sightings every U.S. state except Hawaii.The Pacific Northwest may no longer be the only Bigfoot hotbed in the United States, as an Upper Michigan couple say they may have captured the elusive humanoid on a trail camera, according to reports Saturday, Oct. 5.
The sighting was reported by Craig Sulk, of Menominee, Mich., in the Upper Peninsula, and will be featured in an upcoming episode of Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot.
The story began last March, when Sulk set up a series of cameras on his wooded property. While it is common for trail cameras in the U.P. to capture deer, bears, racoons and coyotes, Sulk wasn't prepared for what he saw while examining photos a couple months later.
Certain it wasn't a shadow, tree or bear, Sulk noticed a creature, which he says stood taller than 5-feet, 8-inches. Perplexed, he immediately told his wife, Barb, he thought he snapped a Sasquatch, Bigfoot's scientific name.
