Raptor Stalking is a quest for level 10-30 in Northern Stranglethorn. It is step 51 of 60 in the Northern Stranglethorn storyline. It rewards 4,100 experience.
It is time to step up the challenge. Venturing into the jungle and bagging 10 lashtail raptors should be sufficient. They will certainly be stronger than the raptors you have already disposed of.
The lashtail raptors mainly stay southeast of here, near the Kal'ai Ruins.

Do it together with [36] The Defense of Grom'gol for double credit.
Make sure you pick up The Defense of Grom'gul along with this one. They both have you kill the same raptors.

The youngest panthers fell easily before you. Panthers that have come of age will naturally be stronger, and quicker, and more difficult to defeat. Larger panther tracks lead to the west.

Well, I've got the basic shape of the boots worked out, and they're coming along fine, but the skins you brought aren't going to be quite enough for the inner layers.
