Sholazar Spirits - Tameability Check

Hey all,

Has anyone had chance to test if the three Sholazar spirits are tameable in Shadowlands? If so, are they still of their respective species (e.g. hydra, crocolisk) or are they "undead"?

The three NPCs in question are: -
Spirit of Ha-Khalan (ghost croc)
Spirit of Koosu (green ooze)
Spirit of Atha (ghost hydra)

The Hydra became tameable(again) in Wod, but the croc was left out and forgotten to be made tameable again

Yes, but is that still the case in Shadowlands?

I seem to remember trying Atha when the Undead tames first unlocked, but wasn't able to tame it. Koosu, being an ooze, I wouldn't expect to be tameable, even if it is classed as a beast. It was at one point, but it looks like it was made untameable several expansions ago.

I still don’t understand why they flagged the croc untameable, the ooze is understandable, the hydra got a family change in cata, but why the ghost croc, it’s just like any croc, just with a ghostly effect
