I found Sarltooth this morning while flying around the wetlands and he has been changed into one of the new undead bone raptors and is no longer tameable.

Interesting find, thanks!!!

Hey...didn't he used to be a quest mob? Now it looks like he's rare.

Edit: I'm correct, he's currently just a quest mob: http://www.wowhead.com/npc=1353

O.O Does anyone have him tamed? Will he still be a skelly if you get him before Cata goes live? Because zomg. I'm sure they'd change it, just wistful thinking...!

I went and tamed him on live and did a character copy and did not get the new bone skin. He stayed the same blue skin color.

How interesting but not surprising. Blizz would never allow anything THAT cool to happen to us hunters.

Somehow I expected that. When they changed him from a quest mob into a rare, he probably got a brand new ID to boot. :( Technically it's not the Sarltooth we currently have, but a rare spawn named after him.

It might also be related to his change into an Undead.

this time blizz actually changed the entire NPC and not just its model thats why it doesnt change to the new skin
its not uncommon for blizz to make 2-5 different versions of the same NPC.

That is interesting. Shows Blizzard has given at least some thought to "carryover" pets...
