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, December 4...

1839: "Ottawa Prophet" Ezekiel Stone Wiggins born in Canada. Later in life he claimed power to predict weather and earthquakes, also theorizing the existence of living plesiosaurs in Rice Lake, Ontario.


1970: Witnesses find footprints 15 inches long and 6 inches wide in frozen snow around Vader, Washington. Beneath the snow, the tracks are impressed 1.5 inches into underlying gravel. Three days later, a dome-shaped UFO passes over the area.
