While true, you also gotta remember; this is modern Blizzard. These could just be out of place additions, much like those atrocious plush bear pets and mounts. Granted, these new models are actually cool unlike those bears, but still. Plus, if we were getting a nature/elemental themed patch soon(tm), we probably would've had good hints by now. Hedgehogs COULD happen if Blizzard didn't pull a WoD and cut out the Harronir zone, and we're coming ever closer to the end of TWW since it's supposed to be a short expansion. Nothing at all hints at those flying corehounds being anything other than just cool things for the sake of being cool, unfortunately.

I'm still hoping the Sunwarmed Furline is a hint of something to come. And that something comes soon.

I don't think that there was ever any confirmation of there being a Harronir zone, only people's speculation that there could be.

The Harronir zone was datamined early on. There's always a chance it'll be added between 11.1.5 and Midnight. We still have 11.1.5, 11.1.7, 11.2, 11.2.5, and 11.2.7 left, according to Blizzard's roadmap, and both Undermine and the Ethereal raid were known well in advance of 11.1. No DIRECT confirmation, sure, but the evidence is enough to convict a guy if this was a court hearing. Blizzard obviously cranked up their encryption, considering Wowhead is STILL woefully behind on having correct information in some important aspects (such as our pets' families).

Never say never until it never comes to fruition!

Playing around on the PTR for 11.1.5 right now. Not a single beast is tameable, as far as the Sureki stuff is concerned. No unused model and/or texture combos either.

The Disturbed Trash Rat uses the old rat model and is tamable. It can be found in the Horrific Visions in Stormwind by interacting with a trash pile to the right of the Cathedral (when facing the building).

Also found a tamable armored lynx that uses the new color variants.

The Mourning Warlynx is found to the north of Dunelle's Kindness. Initially friendly, when you try to comfort the lynx it will push you away and you will then be able to tame it.

Yay more Lynxes. I love the lynx!! <3

Some bad news about it. Currently, it has over a 30 minute respawn timer - looking like it might be an hour. It likely can be attacked and/or tamed by other hunters or killed by random people. It also comes in three color variants, so if one you want doesn't spawn then you'll have to wait again for it to possibly spawn and have to compete for it again.

What color variants does it come in?

Pale w/ Pale Armor, Brown w/ Pale Armor, and Black w/ Pale Armor

Found the black, he's a really handsome guy! You can find him surrounded by spider corpses (and his owner).

I'm not usually into armored pets, but that's a classy looking lynx!

Same I can’t do armored pets, but they look nice with the new transmogs, I would love to have an unarmored version of the new white lynx, this patch would of been a great opportunity to add unused lynx colors, but i will wait

The white lynx only has an armored version. Unlike the other lynx colors, there isn't one without armor. The textures of some pieces of the armor are part of the whole model, so you cannot separate the two.

I already knew the lynx didn’t have a unarmored look(yet) but the closest color to it is the grey one, I’m not attached to the brown colors, even the dark one is brown, the silver one is different enough it could have been added in this patch as a tameable look, the harnessed ones should also become tameable npcs

With Midnight coming up and us returning to Eversong and Ghostlands, and there also being a reasonable chance of us traveling to the Arathi Empire, I'm sure that the rest of the variants will be added.

Man, now that you mentioned Eversong and Ghostlands, I'm now worried my GOAT the Springpaw Lynx will get the hyena or wind serpent treatment with a model update. I really hope they just give us an updated model (like the unused Desert Lion that's been in the files since the end of MoP, which is literally the lynx skin slapped onto a night elf cat druid), and not just a recolor of the Arathi lynx. Visiting the Arathi homeland would be a great way to introduce the missing lynx skins, but I'm with Worg on this; those skins should be organically added to the ones currently present. They did it for the Teroclaw Chicks in Talador when new skins were made for them, so it's not unusual to do it for other mobs!

I regret to report that the rat in Visions of Stormwind on the PTR is no longer tameable. Fun detected.

well that just seems silly now that we have rats we can tame
