In the same patch where Blizzard "fixed" the Sons of Hakkar so that they would no longer color-change, they did the same to the Bloodaxe Worg. Now, all the Bloodaxe Worgs in LBRS are black and stay that way, and all the Scarshield Worgs are the red-brown and stay that way (I checked last night on live to make sure it really was the red fur/green eyes skin). Both are tamable, unless something really major has changed.

So it looks like the brown fur/blue eyes skin is still unaccounted for at present.

I'm aware this post is about a month old, but I wanted to point something out--then I'ma go around looking at reddish worgs everywhere.

The Horde 60% base mount "Timber Wolf" is the same as Tito, by looks. I noticed it when riding through Searing Gorge, and remembered this thread, so I figured I'd come give you guys a look. Maybe this was the main reason for this skin? I don't know why they'd have two so similar. Notice the much larger difference between these two and the "blue-eyed" skin, the "Brown Wolf" mount, in the last image.

I think you're right; the timber wolf looks like Tito (who does NOT have blue eyes) and the other one looks like the worg pup's other color. Why is neither tameable? qq :/

Interesting aside: Fei Fei in Honor Hold is now a Perky Pug.

Wow, I somehow expected Haris Pilton's pet (Tinkerbell?) would be the one they'd change to a pug if anything :)

Thanks for those pics, Acherontia! Nice job. You're probably right, the skins could well have been created for more mount colours. Hopefully they'll be available on tameable beasts though.

I just wanted to point out that in your comparison, it is visible that their eyes have difference colours, but you can't really tell that in the model viewer in wowhead :)

Speaking of very minute colour differences, see if you can tell the differences between these two green core hound skins!

- The in-game version used on the green core hounds in SMV, etc.

- The unused version, found as a green skin option for the original core hound model

The unused version is very subtly yellower than the in-game one. Both skins are listed as FelBeastSkinGreenBlack.

I suspect that the Brown Wolf is one of the fake pets hanging around the Mount Vendor and Stable Master in Orgrimmar.

I know Blizzard is trying to make stables more interesting, but I wish they'd stop scattering random untameable one-off beasts around the world like that.
