I've added lists for matching mounts and companion pets to the Shadowlands guide.

Mounts: https://www.wow-petopia.com/shadowlands ... gmountsnew
Companions: https://www.wow-petopia.com/shadowlands ... panionsnew

Please let me know if you find anything that I missed. Note that for the sake of simplicity I only match minipets and mounts that have looks that are linked to the hunter pet, i.e. mostly I stick to the same look, or a mount look, or a chibi/baby look. I currently don't list things because they colour match, as that would be a huge job.

I was able to get my hands on a mawrat in the intro, they are the size of darkhounds when tamed, and the soulseeker, is slightly smaller than the ankylodon, I got my bastion tames, they are amazing, especially the larions

The second boss of the Necrotic Wake is tamable. This makes it the only tamable saddled Maldraxxus chimaera.

That... probably has a good chance of being hotfixed, I think. Bosses aren't meant to be tamed at content, they make them tameable after. I can see it being made tameable later, but I'd be skeptical if they left the boss 'skippable' by simply taming it.

The thing is, if you do tame it, you cannot complete the dungeon. It is impossible to progress to the next boss without killing the tamable boss.

So I just entered Ardenweald, looking for a nice pet to tame and stumbled upon a teal vulpin, it's darker than the blues I saw the minute I entered the zone, on petopia it says 'possibly removed' cuz someone did say they disappear, but here it is, the next source of a teal, no need to tame one in the dungeon anymore, hooray!
Edit-I found it in soryn’s meadow as you see on the pic

That is good to know. You can find the darker teal one further west in the zone.

Is the Shadow Croaker Glitterfall Heights spawn point known yet (50,39)? I accidentally saw him on my minimap, trapped and started a tame but it failed for whatever reason. No big deal, just want to make sure its known. I have a screenshot if anyone needs, its next to a waterfall.

Edit: Found him again nearby at a known spot so I got the tame. Heres the screenshot of the one I found just in case its not a known spawn point. Its not on the map linked from the Petopia entry for Shadow Croaker. Ignore UI, its still work in progress.

Oooh, that's a new one Quiv! The first time I've seen a spawn point so far inland as well.

I've been keeping a wowhead map of plot points from beta, it's by no means exhaustive, but I'll add this one.

took a bit of a break from SL after leveling and since i earned the undead tome after 10 minutes of elite killing, i finally tamed my beautiful reban, thanks to the help of a friend which grinded the tome and eventually got it, this is my luckiest day in SL

The saddled gargons are now all up on the site. There are actually 7 looks, but Geza and Reza seem to be the only two available.

I hate how the gargon look, but it's good that more mount models are tameable.
