As much as I love the cats, I really want the Thornhides to become pets. I just parked my horde character there where they walk around, and I am waiting to grab one when it's time. What would it be though, if it were to become tameable? A turtle, or a bear?

I openly admit to finding bugs and exploits so they can be reported asap and get fixed. You might have seen some of the fun hunter pet side effects posted here in the past.

I will never share how to perform exploits. The only ones who know are those I personally trust to help get things fixed.

The cats are likely a bug. They originally used a tiger model, so tameability likely got carried over from that.

I don't see them giving us tameable druid forms. They caved with the owlkittens because that was just the hidden appearance for druids, not a base form like these cats and thornhides are.

In fact, there's quite a few instances of the cat form that are not tameable.

There is an unarmored version of the Sabertusks, which will probably act as wild versions. I wouldn't mind if those models became tamable since they are distinguishable from the Druid Forms.

@Werebearguy Turtle, if just between those two. But my money is on there being a new dinosaur family.

I can see why people compare it to a turtle, but I think they're supposed to be more reminiscent of something like an ankylosaur, considering the dino-theme of the Zandalari:

They just didn't give it the long tail (likely for animation reasons). :)

Aye, I've viewed it as an Ankylo since the day it was datamined :) Just between bear and turtle, I would think they would be apart of the latter. But most likely there will be a new family for them should they become tamable.

Oh wow. I'm going to have to add that Druid 'cat' Dino to the database it seems. I really wasn't expecting those!

And the Muppets reference is so gorgeous. I have Rainbow Connection going through my head now :)
