Kaw the Mammoth Destroyer can be found at 53,24 riding Moria.
Once you mount one of the bull mammoths, you'll have 3 abilities to use:
Mammoth Trample (0.25 sec cast with 4 sec cooldown)
5266 - 7734 damage on Kaw or Minions of Kaw within 10 yardsMammoth Charge 5-30 yd range (0.9 sec cast with 8 sec cooldown)
Charges Kaw or a minion of Kaw, inflicting normal damage plus 2647 to 2953 and stuns the opponent for 3 secThundering Roar (instant cast with 15 sec cooldown)
The mammoth bull trumpets a monstrous bellow, causing those in its immediate vicinity to fleeYou'll first fight Moria, who will die within 3-5 hits with trample. Once that happens, Kaw will dismount and attack you. He hits your mammoth for between 300-400, but you should be able to kill him easily. If you get overwhelmed with adds, just use the AoE fear. Note: Kaw is immune to the fear.
Once he is dead, use the ability to dismount and loot the axe object that is next to his corpse.
When you complete this quest, the Wooly Mammoth Bulls will no longer be hostile to you.

What to do
Description
You cannot defeat the being responsible for the slaughter of my kind by yourself. The mammoths of the tundra will help you! Venture forth to the plains and find a mammoth bull. He will allow you to mount him and control his movements and actions. Ride upon his back and find Kaw, north of here at Kaw's Roost. Together, you will be the instrument of Kaw's demise. Destroy Kaw's armies and take from Kaw his coveted war halberd. Return to Lathorius at the D.E.H.T.A. Encampment should you succeed.
