Overview
CFZ Press is the publishing arm of the Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ), a British organization devoted to cryptozoology and the study of unknown animals. The CFZ describes itself as a professional and scientific body focused on cryptozoology and related disciplines, conducting research worldwide since 1992. CFZ Press operates as the organization's publishing division, issuing magazines and books on subjects that might otherwise struggle to find a publisher. Its output is closely tied to the CFZ's mission: to investigate and research cryptids with scientific rigor, to investigate sightings of animals believed extinct or outside their natural habitat, to publish findings freely and transparently, and to promote environmental justice, conservation, sustainability, and animal welfare. The press serves a niche readership of cryptozoology enthusiasts, researchers, and readers interested in natural history and green issues. Although available evidence does not establish a clear founding date for CFZ Press, it is an active British publisher associated with the CFZ brand. The organization also produces a weekly web TV show, On The Track (OTT), covering cryptozoology, natural history, and green issues, further extending its media reach. CFZ Press publications are likely available through the CFZ website and events, helping to document and disseminate cryptozoological research.
History
CFZ Press is the publishing division of the Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ), a British organisation founded in 1992 to study cryptozoology and mystery animals. The Centre describes itself as a professional and scientific organisation dedicated to cryptozoology: the study of unknown animals and allied disciplines. Since 1992, the CFZ has carried out extensive research into mystery animals and animal mysteries around the globe. As part of its mission to publish findings and make them freely available, the CFZ operates its own publishing house, producing both magazines and books on subjects that would otherwise not see the light of day. This publishing arm is known as CFZ Press. While the exact year CFZ Press was established is not documented in the available sources, it has grown alongside the Centre's research activities. The press publishes works on cryptozoology, natural history, and related fortean topics, catering to a niche readership. In addition to its publishing activities, the CFZ produces a weekly WebTV show called On The Track (OTT), which covers cryptozoology, natural history, and green issues, mixed with light comedy. The organisation's mission includes investigating and researching mystery animals with scientific rigour, investigating sightings of animals thought to be extinct or outside their natural habitat, publishing findings freely and transparently, and promoting environmental justice, conservation, sustainability, and animal welfare. CFZ Press remains an active publisher within this framework, contributing to the documentation of cryptozoological research and fortean phenomena.
