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.

WHAT CHAMPLAIN DIDN'T SEE

Lake Champlain is said to harbor a famous monster.   The Indians call it tatoskok.  Many people think that Champlain (1567-1635), after whom the lake is named, himself saw the monster.  This, however, is an error.  There is no record of him ever seeing such a beastie.


However, he did see another cryptid in the lake in 1609.  This was called the chaosarou.  It had sharp teeth and was 5' in length.  It does not seemed to have attained the fame of Champ.
