The Arcane Ark - The CFZ Interactive News Archive

In July 2003, Elliot Saunders and Jon Downes instituted the CFZ Forum. Here we post all the news items we receive on cryptozoology, exotic zoology and allied disciplines. However, we have an enormous archive of material prior to this date. Fulfilling our original pledge - made when the CFZ was founded in 1992 - we are slowly making all our archives available through this web-based news server. All articles featured here are archived from public news-media, such as newspapers, scientific journals, news agencies and so on. The information they contain is, and remains, the property and copyright of the original author or journalist and no contest to this right is intended by these reprints, they are produced here for research and archival purposes only.  If you have information or would like to comment on any of these articles, please feel free to contact us with your questions or comments at news@cfz.org.uk
