At first I was very skeptic about them, but seing all videos with them - they've got nice animations that remind of old azerothian wolves, and I always loved them, but a low-polygon body averted me from them. Foxes don't have that issue. So I'm deffinately taming one, but then it's still uncertain whatever I'll keep it or not. They seem strange, but they are cute. :)

Yes and no. I mean, hyenas use the wolf models too, but there's still enough significantly different (like head placement, the hunchback, and general model shape) that it doesn't bug me as much. Plus, Hyenas and Wolves already act very similarly in real life (pack mentality and all) so the fact that they share animations isn't so bad, because it fits them both anyway.

Foxes, though...basically the only thing that they changed was to narrow the face, and make the take stick up a little more. And they lack unique animations too. I mean, that adorable little pounce that the fox was doing in that video--that'd be great to see! Or a little fox trot instead of the exact same wolf run. Or something like that. At least SHOW that you put a little more effort into your new pets, Blizz.

Well, they're still doing a lot of refining. Maybe we'll be lucky. :D

Me neither. I might just get the typical red fox.
