This raptor companion is available upon defeating Bloodlord Mandokir in the new five-man heroic Zul'gurub dungeon. Players who have completed the level 20+ Lashtail Hatchling quest chain will find a captured Lashtail Hatchling in the instance, which they can save, and conclude this raptor's storyline.

To begin the lower level quest chain, horde players will need to pick up the quest The Defense of Grom'gol: Raptor Risk and alliance players will need to pick up the quest Bad Medicine.

Unlike other pets, the Lashtail Hatchling will proudly sport the title of 'aka instead of 's Compnaion.

I actually submitted a ticket asking Blizz to categorize her as the girl she's supposed to be and to give us our 'aka after our names back. Yes, I was that irritated :P  We did all that work for her and now our bonded names are gone!

So its a "she" in all the quests, but the breed is male? Please change that Blizz.

Start the quest chain with an alt and once you get the egg you can have both the pre-ZG and post-ZG versions of her out at the same time. In ST that is ofc.

Rescuing this little girl was my big motivation for powering through to 85. After the changeover, I just had to keep her name the same (though you can't have an apostrophe in there)

Not 100% sure, but I'm thinking that you may be able to rename her back to the way it was (did not try renaming any yet, so not sure if available).

As of patch 5.0.4 it longer has the caption "<player name>'aka" and uses the standard "<player name's> companion". =(

This is my favorite pet of all time! The quest line is adorable and her scars make her unique among the baby raptors. The emote is super cute too & a nice match when you're working on archaeology-- you dig up artifacts, she's gnawing on a corpse & digs up a bone.

Just got her today. Was rather easy. Though the first two tanks left the moment they noticed the instance, we actually fought through the whole thing rather well, not even needing the tank (since he died) on Venoxis.

For me, obtaining this pet was far more frustrating than any grinding job. I went through hours and many groups queuing for the dungeon, even trying to create my own with guild members. After the last boss is killed, DO NOT leave the dungeon like I did (twice, really? Yeah really). I never caught the drift when I was given the info at first, but the quest to obtain this raptor is inside the instance. Mount up and run to the quest point in the lower right corner before you leave.

I'm a bit confused, and my research has left me more confused. I did the quest chain, but it just ended abruptly. with no pet. Is this no longer available? Or did I just miss something?

Just got this one, named as player's name aka instead of companion. She would go around the mobs I killed and fetches a bone, really special! After defeating 2nd boss in ZG, this little baby is attached in the battleground, click on her to get quest. This pet with a storyline gets players very attached to it! I love her so much!

To Foxies: prob u have to bring out the lashtail to the troll ruins to sniff out the skull and get the next quest from the baby lashtail raptor.

For those of you who don't wish to engage in PvE, you do not need to be present for the Bloodlord kill to be offered the quest. A friend of mine just finished ZG, summoned me in and I finally got this little bugger.

I feel very emotional about this pet, I really can't bring myself to get any other pet out since getting her, after what shes been through she needs all my love :D

Having a pet with a back story is a brilliant idea, Blizzard should do more like this.

I love the bone retrieval ability. A friend died to the elevator boss last night in raid, and this little fella fetched a bone from them while I pointed and laughed!

I do think it's strange this is currently the rarest pet of the entire list. It's not THAT hard to get!

Hunting Log, Day 309: Today my ongoing raptor expedition take me to Stranglethorn Vale. I'm planning to liberate a baby Lashtail from those evil Zul'Gurub trolls. Their funky voodoo is no match for my magic! After a couple of Arcane Barrages and a missile attack for good measure, they'll wish they'd never touched this lil' guy. Then again, they are elite... and I'm severely undergeared. *sigh* Well, there's always Day 310.
