I have an older screenshot, not the best for comparison (kinda far away) but I went out on this new build and tries to recreate it in the same location, angle, distance, and direhorn. Not easy xD. I think they are the same size.

I honestly can't see a difference. I don't think they've changed them.

I don't see them as changing either. I do think they should be a bit bigger though. If I recall correctly my hunters Bear is bigger than that. But these are Dinosaurs which I would think would be just a smidge bigger. I mean they shouldn't be huge by any means but aren't Rhino's bigger than these too? And I'd like to think a Triceratops is bigger than a Rhino lol.

Same. They do look rather small. A tad bigger would be nice. :3

They look small next to a human...my male draenei is pouting in a corner somewhere now lol. I think the only pet that looks decent next to my hunter is a devilsaur and the quilen...everything else is too small, especially these. The top of a direhorn's horns will come up to maybe his chest...that's so sad, and it's supposed to be a dino.

Have you tried a rhino or Chimaera? They both are rather large pets IIRC.

If the PTR ever gives my hunter with direhorn taming the ability to switch races/factions, I wanted to go through and show a direhorn next to all race/gender combos. I seem to keep hearing concern about their size with [insert gender/race].

I do have a chimera, tho I haven't used it in a while so I don't quite remember how big they are. I don't like any of the rhino models so I don't have one of those to use. Many of these pets make me think of the mounts for the draenei...a lot of mounts need to be scaled up for the blue goats, but they don't scale...and it's sad cause they scale gnome mounts up for some reason! Pretty much any of the hoofed mounts look really tiny under my guy's fat butt (Windsteed, Talbuk, Horse, Hippogryph etc) and many others as well. I know they're not as big as the tauren, but they still need some things scaled up so they don't look as ridiculous. These Direhorns are just way too small, sadly.

What Quivering said would be nice tho. Compare shots with all the race/genders to give a better idea on sizes.
