Interviewing a Monster Hunter

Over at Mysterious Universe , you can find a Q&A that I did some time ago with good friend Jon Downes, of the Center for Fortean Zoology.  The interview covers a lot of ground and starts as follows:

"N: Jon, what, basically, is the CFZ?

"J: The CFZ is the world’s largest mystery animal research group. I founded it in 1993. And, since then, it has slowly become not just the largest in the world, but the fastest growing cryptozoological group in the world, too. My passion for unusual animals went back to my childhood, and I was determined to follow my dreams of establishing a group one day that would put us where we are now, and in a way that benefits everyone who gets involved."
