I recently tweeted Jeremy regarding Clefthoofs and Talbulks, and this was his response!

Still working out final implementation of the WoD families. Thinking maybe a Stag family w/deer, talbuk, MoP stags, etc.
Breathes excitedly.

I hope I didn't sound too greedy in my response. I just really want those armored clefthoofs. : /

That would be very cool

And perfectly in theme with the expansion.

Oh goodness I hope this happens! I'm glad everyone else got their hydras and stuff, but the one thing I kept hoping for through the last two xpacs were stags!

Maybe if we show enough excitement over here it'll convince them.
I'm honestly so thrilled that they're being considered though. As cute as Rylaks are, they just don't have the same oomph as a brand new tameable beast family would due to their similarities with Chimaeras. And, excluding Rylaks, we only have the 2 other families to look forward to (which are both awesome, especially hydras for me), but that seems like such a lackluster amount. Stags and tabluks would make me so happy, and I really do think they would fit well with the theme of Draenor.
*crossing fingers hopefully*

I was thinking the same thing.
I can't even begin to describe how much I've wanted to tame stags ever since I traipsed my nooby way into Ashenvale and stopped dead in my tracks at the sight of those wonderful black ones. As I ventured further into Azeroth, I came across Rams (MUST HAVE) and later, Talbuks. With the addition of the absolutely amazing MoP stags, I don't think I've had a day of huntering go by without wanting one (or ten) ungulates (per hunter

). Don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore the goats, but they are far too lonely in that family!

I could get behind this. Love the black stags.
My only concern is that if they decide to re-merge rylaks with chimeras- which i hope they will- and replace them with stags, we will one again be missing an exotic family. I don't personally feel that stags could or should be made exotic. just speculation though.

Yep, the black ones have been calling to me since Vanilla as well. *swoon* And talbuks, well, they're gorgeous looking and I've always daydreamed about taming one. I don't even care if their older models have some odd animations, I will get one in a heartbeat.

The best thing about Stags is, besides all of their beautiful and unique looks, they have such a massive range of diversity about them. A lot more than some families could even cover.

A thread on the forums to spread some of the excitement, and give Blizzard a positive response to this idea. Support would be appreciated.

Ok I have been really thinking of quitting in September until I read this for so long I have been wanting to tame a stag or talbuk and if this indeed is going to happen then by all means I will go back to staying 90 forever I know just over taming hunter pets but hey they are two I have been wanting like I said and if I am 90 forever I won't have to deal with the wod stuff.

I don't know which groups they may end up including, but I guess anything from Rams onwards in this list:

is a potential candidate there somewhere.

someone need to give this link (
http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic ... 10346#rams) to Jeremy XD
btw, it is cool for stags, but personally i would focus on more cool-looking pets already ready. Like Phoenix, fire birds (with the new model added tonight), or kunchongs.
and rhinos still have few models in the family...
