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.

ONGUIRIRA

A feline or catlike creature reported from Namibia in the 19th Century.  A similar creature, though not given the above name, was reported by F. Galton in 1853.  Curiously, it greatly resembled a puma.  According to native lore, it did not attack people.
