From the article...
Quote
The short beak-snout and long, flipper-like paw certainly don't belong to a dog, but they could easily belong to a young raccoon whose fur and nasal cartilage rotted away in the water. Check out images of raccoon skulls here and here, and this image of a raccoon's paw.

(In proper girlie fashion) eeeewwwwww!!!   

The final word seems to be that is is indeed a raccoon. Thank (insert favorite deity here)! That would have been awkward and bizarre if it were something else of an X-files nature. This is what happens when you release 84,000 sci-fi / superhero/ fantasy movies in one summer. People go nuts.
