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.

PENELOPE IS NO TURKEY

I believe that, if you look in name books, you may find the name Penelope given as meaning turkey.  It doesn't.  After all, in Greek legend, Penelope was the wife of Odysseus/Ulysses long before America with its turkeys was discovered.

What does it mean then?

Well, while the meaning is not certain, it may signify 'duck'.
'Quack!'
