I'm sorry I find this hard to believe but none the less interesting
It is hard to believe because the story is false.
The so called Yowie print appears to be an oven hand (you know where you use a hand glove to take things out of the oven)? plastered into the sand.
The Yowie is homo erectus and leaves modern looking footprints not a hand glove looking print. I can show a hand glove I have next to this print to show you if your interested. The squareness at the back of the ankle/pad shows it to be fake!!!
This QUOTE: "The way the guy's dog was killed was typical of a Yowie," Mr McGinn was quoted as saying. "I know it sounds fanciful but over the past 100 years, dogs get killed or decapitated and people report feeling watched, having goats stolen or seeing some tall hairy thing in the days beforehand."
Typical of a Yowie??? Where did he get that from..thin air?? Seeing what could be a yowie days before and then a killed animal is discovered, you cannot state that the two are even connected, and im 100% convinced they are not related. Judging by the so called print shown it shows they haven't a clue of what they are even searching for.
The bottom line is; No Yowie killed a dog..sensational headlines sells newspapers, but causes great discredit to the filed of Hominology.
