Pandaria Safari

PANDARIA
Here is a list of all pets that can found by zone. I've done a fair amount of research and through personal experience, this is what I've come up with. Not everything is perfect, and mistakes are made. I have linked some wonderful addons/info for those who are hardcore pet owners. If you do find an error, please kindly leave a note with detail, so I may edit. The numbers next to the zones are the levels I've encountered. However, if you look at the ingame map, you'll see the levels of the pets in that zone.

Happy Hunting!

If you're like me, and you enjoy rare pets, I recommend this addon: Pet Quality Notifier

I hope that helps. Happy hunting.

Just a note to anyone having trouble getting credit for certain pets:

It seems that it's the achievement UI that is bugged, and not the pets themselves. Even though the achievement shows certain pets as uncaught, you will still earn this achievement once you catch them all.

I earned this with seven or eight pets still marked as uncaught immediately after whining in guild chat about certain pets not counting.

Good hunting!
