Not to mention, we already have tortoise pets, and they are herbivores. ;)
As are sporebats (Bob!!!), moths, tallstriders, wasps, gorillas, rhinos (the best example right there), and worms. ;)

Still REALLY hoping on this, because I'd kill for one of the white stags in Grizzly Hills or on Azuremyst.

Or to train the GIANT white clefthoof in Nagrand. :D

Although I'm glad to have the beetles, Blizzard are a bit unpredictable in what they make tameable. Basilisks and Hydras are glaring omissions, and so are stags - indeed it looked as though stags were going to be the first new family of Cataclysm for a while, when they erroneously got a (bear's?) diet, but still nothing.

Should lump them with talbuks and zhevras and make a "herdbeast" (herdibeest?) family.

Clefthoofs and Kodo could join the Rhinos.

Mammoths and Elekks could become their own family, or likewise join the Rhinos.

Stags, Zhevras, Shoveltusks, Talbuks, and Rams could also become a new family.

Of all these, Clefthoof look very similar to the already tamable Rhinos, so it really surprised (and saddened) me they were never made tamable... The rest would be awesome too, of course.

Although worms and gorillas, and even wasps are not strictly herbivores on earth.

Some are carnivores.
