Thanks for the replies....

Well first of all, I can assure you all that no member of the hunting party was able to get ahead in order to make the print, as I was the only person carrying a rifle and as such I made sure I was walking point at all times.

It is also HIGHLY unlikey that it was made by anyone not belonging to our party due to the remoteness of the area given the fact that in my 9 years of hunting in the area I have never come across another soul in this area... Honestly, its as remote as it gets.... Theres no power, no phones, no cellphone coverage, no TV etc.... I roughly calculate that I have spent over 2600 hours hiking and hunting in this area during the 5 years I lived there, not including the other 4 years of hunting trips to this area. The shortest hike in to the area where I took those photos is atleast 5 hours if you knew the area, uphill from the shoreline of the island. So the chances of some random person being at the same place earlier that day is so minimal... The reason I say they were made that day is due to the heavy rain for the two days leading up to when I was there, they would have been flattened for sure.

Im mildly offeneded at the comments about them not being tracks, as I have mentioned, I am a very experienced hunter. I have spent 5 years living in this area, hunting and tracking in order to put food on the table. These were definatley prints, without a doubt. The photos do not do what I saw justice, as seems to be the case with most of these mysterious things.

There were more than one, on each side of the stream. They were roughly spaced a little shorter than my stride, but not close enough to be an animal with four legs. I did try to take a photo to show the spacing, but as I have mentioned, Im a hunter not a photographer and you cannot make out anything from that photo. I can post it if it helps.

As far as capturing a plaster cast goes, Im sorry but I dont carry supplies like that whilst trying to shoot pigs in the woods on an island!

I wouldnt have wasted my time searching for this site, joining photobucket, creating an account here etc if I was not 100% sure that these were footprints of some kind. I can post some more photos but they are worse than the ones I have allready posted, so they probably wont be of any use.

Look, I was worried enough to put one in the spout and take the saftey off for the return hike back to base. As I said, been hunting there for 9 years and never felt, well scared before....

Theres a link to another pretty bad photo but it has a .303 round next to it.

But the case is now closed! I got in contact with the local department of conservation who after alot of question asking and supplying them with a photo, very begrudgingly came clean that they had let loose 6 emu onto the island to see if a population can be established!

So it seems they were prints, but not with a 4th toe! Maybe it was dragging its feet or something

Thanks for the input tho.
