They use the bat model. Wouldn't hurt to try
Probably not, the closest thing to a gargoyle is the new bat model from revendreth, and use the stone color

Whoa. Please keep it that way, Blizzard.

Might have to contend with Shadra, though.

(although I'm not sure it's intentional, the tameable flag has been on it for a long time)

Where is that Shadra found? It's worth checking, if only Wowhead actually had data on it.

That's the thing. No idea. If the tameability tag is intentional, that might be part of the whole notion.

I would guess in Ardenweald though, since Loa go there.

Perhaps it's part of a quest then, since most NPCs that spawn from quest objectives show similarly on wowhead? It'd be neat to see another tameable version of Shadra regardless.

Corborus is tamable, but does not retain his name.

Terborus is also tamable and does retain his name.

I feel like they should scale to be bigger. I mean, the model hunter is a male Draenei, so that's contributing to the size comparison, but Gyreworms feel like they should be much larger than regular worms.

Worm pets themselves are very large, except caterpillars, might as well make them the size of a normal worm, they shale worm is the size of a serpent

I'd really like the new spiders to be a bit bigger.

And Aqir Drones/Wasps, too. Think the Gyreworms have a pretty good size, personally.

Infernal Hellhounds are also tameable. Going through now to see if I can find all the appearances listed on the Hound page.

*Edit:* Have confirmed all the ones in Ragefire Chasm are tameable.

The Unliving Swine in Borean Tundra, to the west of Warsong Hold, are not tameable as yet, but that may change. I submitted a bug report just in case.

I also checked on Dusk, Thassarian's Crimson Deathcharger, in Borean Tundra. Unfortunately, she's listed as a Demon, and not tameable as a courser or undead.

*Edit:* On a similar note, Nerubians remain untameable. Some could be considered spiders, given their models. Even those are still untameable.

The skeletal wind serpents are also tameable!

These two don't keep their name (Prophet Tharon'Ja, and the Avatar of Hakkar).

I also checked on the gargoyles in Zul'Drak. They don't have a pet family and are not tameable.

Prophet needs to keep her name, that's just unfair.

Someone probably already reported this, but the Glen Grazers in Ardenweald are now marked as tameable, making their skins available pre-60 :D

Looks to me like the only real thing I’m going to be doing in Shadowlands at least for the first 2-3 days or so is going out and taming everything I can, so I can quest with them new pets and show em off to other hunters or non hunters lol. I don’t think I’ll physically be able to force myself to level until I do that, it just won’t be possible.

I also it seems misunderstood the stable increase I thought it was 200 on top of what we already had, not that there’s anything wrong with 205, just thought it was 250 or whatever we have right now, haven’t exactly played in a few months.

Why did the spam bot question get put into my gender lol? I checked all the boxes before I pressed okay, they were all empty, than put the Serenity Dust into the box as asked, had to go look it up though haha.

Currently, we have a list of every known beast in SL and old content. For the most part, everything in SL content has been checked. That being said, thank you for your report. You could always find something that we missed :)

Hopefully some day we can tame soul eaters, they’ve been classified as beasts, and hopefully at some point in a patch during shadowlands, there will be a family for them, I want a soul eater more than almost anything in shadowlands besides tauraluses and larions
