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, May 9...

1851: The Memphis Enquirer reports a "wild man of the woods" sighted in Greene and Poinsett Counties, Arkansas, described as "of gigantic stature, the body being covered with hair and the head with long locks of hair that fairly enveloped his neck and shoulders." Topping off that description, the creature could leap 14 feet at a single hop.
