These guys are super sensitive if you are too high level.
Soft Foam Sword did get them to 10% but never triggered the grab icon.
Had to take weapon and some clothes off to punch down - 50% is required to trigger grab.

Description

Bonetooths are the backbone of Maldraxxus's armed forces. Those that have been trained well are in demand amongst all of the houses. I always need new bonetooths to train, but they can be rather difficult to collect. Bring me some of the younger ones, and I will reward you greatly. Be advised that you may need to weaken them before you are able to capture them.

Where to go

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.
