At the beginning of the 21st Century monsters still roam the remote, and sometimes not so remote, corners of our planet. It is our job to search for them. The Centre for Fortean Zoology [CFZ] is - we believe - the largest professional, scientific and full-time organisation in the world dedicated to cryptozoology - the study of unknown animals. Since 1992 the CFZ has carried out an unparalleled programme of research and investigation all over the world. Since 2009 we have been running the increasingly popular CFZ Blog Network, and although there has been an American branch of the CFZ for over ten years now, it is only now that it has a dedicated blog.

DARTMOUTH KANGAROO

When thinking about Phantom Kangaroos, those strange beasts reported from the United States that have no business to be there, I came upon a reference to the Dartmouth Kangaroo, but I feel, bearing in mind its description, that it was no true kangaroo.  In fact, I challenge its kangarulity.  It was reported in 1997 near Dartmouth (MA).  Its eyes were bigger than those of a normal kangaroo and it had a fluffy tail.  One wonders if the theory that Phantom Kangaroos are mistaken reports of Devil Monkeys holds good here.

Could we have in this specimen an unknown species that normally lives underground?  I infer that from the big eyes.  However, in this I am reasoning from a result back to a cause, a hazardous process. 

 Another creature which bore some resemblance to a kangaroo was seen by two witnesses at Nissequogue, Long island (NY).  It was apparently colored white.
