We hope that you have fun exploring our site, but remember, unlike some of our competitors, this site is run by working cryptozoologists, not hobbyists. The research into cryptozoology across the globe, and our rapidly expanding programme of community work comes first. We are on a deadly serious mission - do you want to join us?

We are active in conservation, cryptozoology education and community work with both adults and children, but in the last few years things have changed. Increasingly idiotic legislation from successive governments has produced an education system aimed at teaching children to pass exams, and very little else. Add to this the social changes which have made it almost impossible for children (and adults) to study Natural History as a hobby, and you have a situation which we believe is a tragedy.

Because without amateur naturalists there would have been no Darwin, no Linneaus, no Gerald Durrell, no David Attenborough, and no Centre for Fortean Zoology. And without the amateur naturalists of the 21st Century, from whence will the next generation of zoological savants and freethinkers emerge?

DONATE
Cryptozoology is a harsh mistress. Whilst no-one involved in the CFZ management team is paid for their efforts, running an organisation of this size is increasingly expensive.

Sadly, last year - through no fault of our own - we lost two of our main funding sources and are currently facing the worst cash crisis that we have ever had. Every dollar and every pound donated goes straight into CFZ Funds, and we would ask for your generosity.

Please help us to continue with our mission - to prove that famous dictum of Bernard Heuvelmans, the `Father of Cryptozoology`, that "The Great Days of Zoology are not done".
