This companion is a rare tier Fossil archaeology item. It is created by discovering and "solving" 85 fossil fragments.

Once completed, an entry on the Fossilized Hatchling can be found in players' archaeology tab: "When you finished assembling this tiny skeleton through some eldritch magic, the little critter sprang back to life. He's a pretty good pet. Since he's a skeleton, he doesn't eat much."

Great pet to start you off on your way. He is worth the effort in archaeology for a new pet battler. First pet I ever leveled to 25. He led the way for me on Outland. Him plus an H/H Clefthoof and Clockwork Gnome opened up the daily quests for me. I named him Holmes. Still one of my favorite pets.

I got her immediately as my second Fossil, shortly after Cataclysm first came out, right after my Fossilized Raptor. Sufficed to say, By far, one of my favorite pets, lets to Legs, Proto-Drake Whelp,and Feline Familiar. I keep her in my RP rotation, when I find that my Main Pets do not fit with my RP Alts' backgrounds.

For your garrison Menagerie pet daily: use this pet against the Goren team of Rockbiter, Stonechewer and Acidtooth. BONESTORM absolutely wrecks this team. He can't kill the opening pet Rockbiter, but by the time the Fossilized Hatching dies, the other two will be very low on health, allowing almost any other pets to mop up.

Lowish health for being undead, but comes with a powerful heal in Ancient Blessing. The Blessing also increases the health of the team so is quite a nice buff and AoE defense. Bonestorm is now a staple, if slightly overtuned, AoE. Also with 305 power and Claw critters that thought to make short work of this undead will think twice after being hit VERY hard. Very good, but very annoying to face, pet. I usually try and have a stun ready or try and lessen AoE damage with a Sandstorm.

This is a pet I frequently suggest to new tamers.  As an undead, it takes more damage from critters, so having a beast type attack available helps even the odds.  It also has one of the strongest AOE attacks of all the pets, and a decent self heal.

I used this little guy in my intital battle team, and he was the first to hit 25.

His heal is fantastic (and annoying to everyone else) and his one round resurrection can pound that final bit of damage.

Plus, 'BONE STORM' is very funny!

I'd recommend levelling him as your undead pet!

I love dinosaurs, love skulls, and to a lesser extent, bones in general, so when I took up arch when it first came out I had no idea even how it worked short of being a huge pain in the beginning. Anyway, i was just plugging along in the beginning and completing puzzles as they came along, not even paying attention to what I was doing, and all of the sudden a bell dinged for like 2 or 3 achvs and I looked to see I had gotten a first rare find as well as the asst prof title. Big deal, until I checked my bags later while cleaning them out to find this little guy waitng patiently to be learned. I had no idea, but needless to say I was very happy!

Wow was expecting a long haul of grinding before I got my first archaeology pet, but an hour in I get this one. And to think i only popped to STV to get a panther and start the raptor chain :)

This was the third archaeology pet that came up for me. I was so excited! Definitely my favorite arch. pet. What continent you decide to farm will greatly depend on what you're trying to get out of arch. Generally I'd recommend Kalimdor, because of the Tol'vir artifacts. This is also a good place for Night Elf artifacts, whereas if you're looking for the other pets, I'd head to EK for the dwarf and troll artifacts.

All you guys getting him in single figure amount of solves! I'd made everything but the mount version, kraken tentacle and proto drake skeleton for fossil before I got him! He is excellent though, makes some awesome sounds, but I feel a little let down that he doesn't have any special animations, same goes for the Clockwork Gnome.

I got mine last night and the title "Assistant Professor" as well. While I very nice reward for working archeology, it is too small to be used very often.

This was the 6th fossil I completed. Have to say, Ungoro was my best friend for fossil shards. I love this little guy, though i hope my other hatchlings won't gang up on him!

You stare at her, and she just stares right back. So clever; sometimes it seems as if she's figuring out how to open doors.
