Actually the amber parasites been tameable even before patch 5.1. I do not know why anyone never notice but they have been listed under the worm category on wowhead for sometime I thought it was may be an error and was going to check it out soon as I hit 90. For how long they have been tameable I do not believe they will take them away it might have been a little secret snuck in to see how well hunters can hunt.i

:) Yep. And it's also a reference to the sandworms of Frank Herbert's Dune. Seemed to work either way.

Thanks to the lovely Ms Drood I have one! I named him Squiggles. He took the place of my silkworm. I so hope Blizzard doesn't take these. To attached already.

TOTAL abuse of the naming system, but I've gotten a deluge of whispers and emotes giggling about it 8-)

So, saw this thing for the first time in-game and it was sitting right ontop of me (i hearthed to the spot so i panicked for a second rofl), greeting me with all its orangy-ness xD Not mah wormy, wont ever be my wormy (sorry! im in love with the dark grey and blue, the jormungar larva kind <3) but like, holy hell is the size difference extreme o.o the screenies really dont do it justice imo :lol: Look at its size compared to its goblin master!

Edit: Ok, not even my screenie does it justice >.> it looks soooo much bigger in-game to me..

It often is an error. A lot of creatures have a category, but aren't tameable. Not saying they *weren't* tameable before now, but it's happened more than once that things were mislabeled on Wowhead. I doubt it was a secret, though. This is more like something they mistriggered (like the hydra and ooze). I doubt they'll take them away, but I'd be *VERY* much surprised if they didn't size them down at least to silkworm size. They may not be chibi-sized, but they *do* look big enough to cause the same problems!
