Of the five "mount catching" quests I've done, this one was the trickiest. One bit of advice: don't try to jump after it when it jumps that big gap; you probably won't make it. Instead, take the path to the side. You may need more than one try to get this quest done.

Description
Well, you're pretty good at this whole taming thing. What's next? We've done big, and we've done pointy. Let's do big AND pointy. I'm talking Elekks. Way out on the fertile plains of Nagrand, you'll find the finest specimens of beast this world has to offer. Grab one of the younger elekks, and we'll see if we can't get it trained like the Draenei used to.
