One type of ‘anomaly’ that has proved enduringly popular, especially among Creationists, is the supposed human footprint found in geological strata that ought to be older than the origins of Homo sapiens. Many of them are simple misidentifications, but some are outright frauds. Others are a combination of misidentification, ‘enhanced’ to make them appear more human. The sub-section presents a selection of them.

See “Petrified Footprints: A Puzzling Parade of Permian Beasts” by Jerry MacDonald, Smithsonian, July 1992, Vol. 23, Issue 4, p. 70-79
Jerry MacDonald’s discoveries of Permian footprints were certainly ground breaking. However, the print shown on the page to which you link is one that has been thoroughly debunked and is not one of MacDonald’s discoveries. The site you which you link claims that MacDonald found “large mammal and bird tracks”, whereas the article cited (but, significantly, not quoted) describes them as tracks belonging to large amphibians and mammal-like reptiles, creatures perfectly at home in the Permian.
It’s particularly telling that the site to which you link concludes that ”evolutionists have not tried to argue their authenticity or debunk them. Nor have they tried to argue that the footprint isn’t human. (Often they claim that it’s a print that just “looks like” a human footprint.) Their very silence is deafening”; you’ve seen the link to an ‘evolutionist’ debunking. Silence, indeed!
