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.

ON THIS DAY IN WEIRD



On This Day in Weird, March 12...

1870: The Avalanche newspaper, published in Silver City, Idaho, reports hunters have killed a carnivorous animal of unknown species, dubbed "the man-eater," near town. The report described it as having short legs and ears, large feet, a bushy 10-inch tail, and weighing about 100 pounds. The fate of its corpse is unknown.
