Really hoping it could be the compy model. I know some dinosaurs got feathers, so yeah. Just a hope.
Skree! It's like a bearded vulture-raptor-THING. I love it already. :D Huzzah!

Oh cool, the face almost reminds me of a bearded vulture. Body looks a bit awkward, but maybe that would be better in motion. Nice feathers though!

EDIT: Hee, Yoruko beat me to the comparison. :D

That would be awesome IF it's tameable. Just put it in th raptor family.

Currently this guy is not tameable, but neither are the normal "black" raptors which are also in the area so maybe there's hope yet! We have another case where a troll npc is riding a separate beast npc and gets knocked off when you kill him. If these raptors get flagged for taming later on we'll get a third armoured raptor mount choice?

There is one of the new blue dragon turtles which is tameable: http://forums.wow-petopia.com/download/ ... w&id=21570

Currently it makes quite a loud stomping noise when it walks next to you. Also, when I tried to abandon this turtle it glitched me pretty badly and left my pet status in a limbo. "You have an active summon already."

Edit: Make that two! http://forums.wow-petopia.com/download/ ... w&id=21571

Curiously, not all of those turtles stomp when tamed. I ran into two other hunters with the non-finned version and only mine stomped. Very strange.

Glowy turtle! I should probably nudge "leveling my Pandaren Hunter" a bit higher up on my priorities list if this stays as-is. :)

Looks like a raptor hit the next stage in the evolutionary chain.
