Protect the Frontier is an Alliance-only quest for level 1-30 in Elwynn Forest. It is step 20 of 30 in the Elwynn Forest storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Elwynn Forest at 74.0, 72.2. It rewards 5 reward items, 1 reputation reward, 3,100 experience and money.
Description
Hail, <name>. Wild animals are growing more and more aggressive the farther we get from Goldshire, and the Eastvale Logging Camp suffers nearly constant attacks from wolves and bears!
This quest is quite spread out throughout eastern Elwynn. Directly north of the guard who gives you the quest is a Prowler den, which contains about 4 or 5 prowlers depending on the respawn, and the bears are scattered across Elwynn's eastern side completely sporatically. If you want to be able to do this quest faster though, there is a huge encampment east called the Eastvale Logging Camp which contains lots of Prowlers and Bears outside of it, along with the proper materials for the "A Bundle of Wood" quest. I suggest going to Eastvale to complete this quest.
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.
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.
Quests whose map markers the client places closest to this one on Elwynn Forest, nearest first. Distances are straight lines between the markers.

By decree of the Stormwind Army, a bounty has been placed on the head of James Clark. Clark is wanted for robbery, burglary, arson, and murder. He is also a suspect in the kidnapping and disappearance of the Brackwell's prized pig, Princess.
The thugs in Elwynn wear linen which I can use to make fine linen goods. Bring me linen scraps and I'll use them to fashion something for you. You'll find those lawless criminals in pockets across Elwynn Forest.
