TheWoWDBIf you abandon the quest and get it again, it won't respawn. The boss skull icon appears on the minimap where the pet is, so it appears that the game considers your new bear to still be the quest mob. The way to complete is to dismiss your pet, retake the quest, wait for Mangeclaw to spawn, then call your pet.

He is tamable! However the bear does not seem to return if you do tame him. Hence, the quest is not completable.
it is no longer needed to abandoned the quest he now respawns on top of the hill he comes running down pretty soon after being tamed.

Hildelve wrote in his journal that he was attacked by Mangeclaw, a "huge Ice Claw Bear." He drove off the beast, but not before it mauled him savagely. Judging from the state of Hildelve's body, Mangeclaw must have later returned and killed him. However, Hildelve wrote in his journal his one, final wish: Revenge against Mangeclaw.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Lost Pilot
My friend and fellow Siege Engine pilot, Mori Hildelve, is lost in the hills. We were looking for a rare ore that's needed for a high-grade blastpowder, and during our search he drove his engine up a steep hill and busted it!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Defense of the King's Lands
We need to protect the Loch, <name>! With so many of the King's soldiers fighting valiantly on remote battlefields, we've become overwhelmed on the home front. Troggs are tunneling up from every crevice! The trogg infestation poses the largest threat to Ironforge.
