I am now seeing this as an Available Quest on the map in 10.1.5 as a lvl 70 Alliance Worgan Rogue but it cannot actually be picked up. I'm not sure when this appeared but I would guess within the last two minor patches. I've also been exalting a few Classic reps + doing return to Naxxramas stuff so it may be tied to those, but that's unlikely since it hasn't been noted up to this point. I have already tried disabling all addons but I have not tested on another toon to find the exact conditions for when it appears.
EDIT: Still present in 10.2.5

Same problem here. It's bugged; just another case of WoW's declining quality control.
same here, still not fixed (btw also Worgen Rogue)

Description
What you see here is the work of the quilboar, young one. Year after year they have encroached on our village. The great cataclysm finally drove them from their dens to spread like locusts across the land, and now you see the result; my own mother, dead from their savagery. Today, you are of age. Today, you will take up your weapon and fight for the tribe, and avenge the Greatmother. Follow the path to the east, and find my son, Grull. He will lead you in our strike against the quilboar.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Rite of Strength
Behold, <name>. The very presence of the Bristleback is a blight. Nothing is left in their wake but corpses and barren land. Camp Narache could become what we see here in but a few days, unless we stand and fight. This will be your Rite of Strength; the first ceremony of a tauren brave.
