An obvious spin on Green Eggs and Ham - in the Ember Clutch (which is on the map in Howling Fjord) - walk up to the whelp eggs - which you can target - and use the quest item. Then kill the plagued whelp that spawns, 100% drop chance.
make sure you pick up the quest: Root Causes http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=11182
as most of the eggs are guarded by the Dragonflayer Handlers
you can pick up this quest from Ember Clutch Ancient at 41, 49

Description
This new plague that we're working on is wonderful and I think we should expand its testing. How about testing it on proto-whelps?! Just think of the possibilities. The ability to infect not only humanoids, but extend our reach to any creature! Here, I've hoarded an extra plague canister for the right time and place, and you look like the right person. Spray the eggs at Ember Clutch to the northwest, then get specimens from the plagued proto-whelps that hatch.

Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
