Fossilised Footprints? (Kalbarri, WA)
Posted: Tue Aug 20, 2019 12:47 pm
Hi from a new member, got some photos I'd like to share for review. I am not a Yowie hunter, nor had it ever crossed my mind that these fossilised prints could be from a Yowie - that is until I saw a photo of footprints elsewhere and it triggered a memory of these old photos.
At the time my friend and I thought they were human and sent the photos for review to a museum. They said it was not possible as humans had not roamed the continent for that long (however, this was in 2002, they have of course since revised the timeline!).
When I took the photos I really didn't give it much thought and the quality of the camera wasn't crash hot either (early days of digital photography), so I apologise for the poor quality. The darker grey area at the edge is the actual footpath, the prints are in the rock, slightly curved upwards.
Just putting them up for discussion, cheers.
