Wow, this took me a bit to actually find these mobs using the location the game gives you. According to WoWHead's map, these mobs are everywhere in the zone, but I ran back and forth for about 5-10 minutes trying to find the last one I needed to get the blood. Perhaps Blizz should add a few mobs to the location it gives for this quest.

Description

Lady Sylvanas has called upon the Royal Apothecary Society. She has challenged us to concoct a new plague, a plague deadlier than any ailment on Azeroth. This new disease will bring our enemies - living and dead - to ruin. My studies show that the blood of beasts might prove to be the key. Here, fill these vials with darkhound blood so I can test my theory.

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.
