Many a drunken Brewfest goer has told the tale of this mysterious creature, but few remember that tale in the morning.

The Wolpertinger is one of two pets (the other being the Pint-Sized Pink Pachyderm) that are only visible to the player and to members of the player's party. Non-party members can also see this pet when "completely smashed."

In 2008, this pet was sold for 50 silver throughout the event. In 2009, the original quest to obtain the pet was restored for the US only. EU players can continue to purchase this pet for 50 silver.

This guy has always been one of my very favourite companion pets, so when I was lucky enough to get a Flawless Battle Stone in my very first reward sack, I immediately used it on him. Suffice to saw, WOW! Upgraded to a blue, the Wolpertinger packs a serious punch, enough that it can solo multi-pet battles several levels higher. Amazing little bugger!

If you get a flawless critter battle-stone I think this is honestly the best guy to use it on. :)

Along with the quest, I noticed they now sell him from the Brewfest vendor for 200 tokens

When i first saw this little guy my reaction was 'ohmygawd, ITS CUTE!'
And when i clicked on him...... O_O
Those sounds!
I just melted away.
I never knew it was invincible to other players, unless they are drunk..
That's why i never saw one out!
[I don't drink, haha :D....hic!]

The Wolpertinger is not to be confused with its close cousin, the jackalope (also called an antelabbit, aunt benny, Wyoming thistled hare or stagbunny), which inhabits the American West. The jackalope is an antlered rabbit, but lacks the wings and fangs of the Wolpertinger.

The Wolpertinger (Crisensus bavaricus) (also called "Wolperdinger", "Poontinger" or "Woiperdinger") is a fictional animal said to inhabit the alpine forests of Bavaria in Germany. It has a body comprised from various animal parts — generally wings, antlers, and fangs, all attached to the body of a small mammal. The most widespread description is that of a horned rabbit or a horned squirrel. // Wikipedia.

I must bid you a dose of Brewfest caution: don't get too close to this wild wolpertinger! He is the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered hallucination you'll ever set eyes on! What?! You don't believe me? He's got huge, sharp— uh— he can leap about— just look at the bones!
