The game thought I had this quest but it wasn't in my quest log. I re-logged, and it fixed the issue.

If you get stuck at 7/8 after killing additional enemies, simply take the portal from where you started (the one next to Xy'bin and Ta'ka) and check to see if the quest is completed.
To get to the area with the escaped creatures, enter the portal near the quest giver Ta'ka.

What to do
Description
I am Ta'ka, supplier of rare creatures destined to repopulate my homeland. At least, I was until some of them escaped their translocation cages! This cannot stand! These creatures are vital. If you could assist me with capturing them, I'd be quite appreciative. Engage them in combat and subdue them. The capture device I've provided will automatically translocate them back to my care once they are on the verge of defeat.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Compromised Containment
Somehow, an artifact in the Menagerie has broken open, unleashing a swarm of furious arcane creatures. They're wreaking havoc, and havoc is bad for the project. I need someone capable of getting this situation under control with no questions asked.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lost Lines of Defense
This is not a good day! Not at all. My whole shipment of barrier projectors was ransacked! Most of them are gone, and it seems whatever the culprits didn't take, they destroyed. These barrier projectors are essential for securing the wild places on K'aresh, and even the city of Tazavesh.
