Seeing I was a little rusty when I made my recent Pet Suggestion Thread and I want to give it another chance, I'll make a little poll here for everyone (Whoever
sees this thread, really) to decide what my next one should be and, if you want, you could explain why you want me to make such a thread!

Depending on how many votes each one gets, the one with the most votes will get be chosen as the first suggestion and the rest will come later on. (Depending on their number of votes as well.)

Most of your propositions are creatures either completely new to WoW or ones that would require a new mechanic (i.e. how does a shark survive outside water? or he doesn't?). I voted for cloud serpents because ideally, we would be able to tame creatures belonging to all the Celestials.

All I can say is: this is the internet. if you don't want people to say it, don't give them the opportunity.

A button with that option is just screaming "nooooo! click MEEEEE!"

For myself, I simply find your obsessing over all things dinosaur a tiny bit grating.

A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

It's the only option that says "No, I don't believe any of these choices will be next." Since there's no "no" option without the sarcastic and mean text after it, you didn't give people who don't think any of those choices will be next any other choice when responding. So really, it's not that surprising that it was chosen.

I can't see aquatic pets being made for hunters unless they use a system like Guild Wars 2 (can only work when underwater.)

Considering there is only one underwater zone, I think that would be a waste of time that could be spent developing other pets.

I picked Giant Salamanders, I want an amphibian pet! Especially if they have fire powers like their brethren of legend.

A lot of my suggestion threads happen to be something relatively new to WoW. For further proof, I've located my older suggestion threads.

A lot of my ideas are things that are already in the game (Even though they're almost non-existent/have bad models/Not big enough to be a hunter pet), most of them would require a bit of effort to make, as they'd have to have newer models that would fit new animations so they could be actual hunter pets.

I do admit, it was kinda stupid of me to say that and put that as an option. So, it's been changed to ''None''.

I really think they need to make beavers tameable. Those things are already pretty crazy! I was so sad to find out they were untameable when I was questing.
They'd be perfect, just like the porcupines are!

Sharks and other sea creatures would be nice, but unless they had the sea-pony bubble, I dont see it possible.. But then having a whole bunch of big pets in bubbles would look super silly.

Siggy under construction!

I don't doubt your past record, I merely stated that I would prefer stuff that's better grounded in the game.

Cloud serpents to me would be the ultimate pet. Lung dragons have always been my favorite dragon/mythical beast. Blizzard did such a wonderful job on their cloud serpents, I'd love to have one at my side.

the newly tameable Arcane Wyrms come sort of close to what you want. I know it's not the exact same thing...
personally, I am in 7th heaven with the Arcane Wyrms. they are my dream pet.

While this feature of the Grimtotem Spirit Guide wasn't exactly intended... - it will still be possible in future for everyone who wishes to tame this NPC to do so
