So i was just mining around Darkshore, and i didn't have a pet active so i decided to tame a Corrupted thistle bear, it had a cub. And now the cub is following my pet EVERYWHERE!
:lol:

Interesting. I didn't know that happened with the Matriarchs. Usually when you tame animals that have offspring, they turn around and kill the babies after taming >.<

This isn't just the cub pet from the Molten Front, right?

On the ptr I acutally tamed the white bear in dragonblight I think it was and her cub kept following her around for awhile to :lol:. Its an odd glitch. It would follow her, then turn against her then id dismiss her.. recall her the bear cub would go back to following her as soon as he got to the bear though he turned on her again. Was alot of fun really.

I can also confirm this is true! I'd tamed a Corrupted Thistle Bear that patted around a nearby Young Grizzled Thistle Bear (lvl 16, neutral). Took a couple of post-tame run-bys, but the cub did follow my bear 3 out of 5 attempts. I've included screenshots of the little tailgater, though it was kind of difficult to get an action shot. Did my best, just overlook the crappy quality hehe. Adorable find, Petulance and Sasrei! :)

I went on a low level alt and tried taming corrupted thistle bear matriarchs that had thistle bear cubs. On my first tame, the cub decided to go hang out with another matriarch instead of my tamed pet. So I released and tamed the matriarch with two cubs, and this time I had Two cubs following my new tame! And by following, I mean alternating between following, sitting, running away, and running back. As I was walking back to town, a guard took out the nearer cub. Backing off to save the farther cub, I decided to dismiss then re-summon the hunter pet. After this, the cub just sat there, having no further interest in my hunter pet. Took the FP back to Teldrassil, and the cub did not show back up when I landed. Perhaps someone could try hearthing right after the tame, to see if the cub shows up afterward?

Too bad they can't be picked up and used as missiles like in Mt Hyjal... >:]

Yea, i just went on my main and tried Taming a white bear with a cub. Its an awesome glitch. With the darkshore cub if you go near the lor'danel sentinels, they kill the cub :'(

The sentinels try to kill ME when I go near them! They're just crazy kill freaks! NElves just like destroying stuff. Like Azeroth. Twice. :lol:
