Tasmanian Tiger Print?

The Tasmanian Tiger, or Thylacine, is claimed to be extinct. The last known Thylacine died in Hobart Zoo in 1936. But many sightings of the wolf-like animal with its characteristic striped back have been reported since, in Tasmania as well as on the mainland. The author wishes to file another proof of the Tiger's survival, taken on Feb 12th, 2002, a print of the animal's front paw on the beach at Cockle Creek. It could not have been the print of a dog, of course, as this was in the National Park, where dogs are forbidden by law!

Actually, on second thought, the joke migth be not a joke at all...  The author did NOT fake the print, and it looks quite similar to the schematic drawing shown at Wikipedia. Please contact me if you have more expertise at this subject, and would like to receive the original image.
