TheWoWDBIts amazing how few wolves in Terrokar have tails. You'd swear it looks like they all have one, but once the kill is done, lo and behold, no tail. Reminds me of those mutant humans in Hillsbrad that have no skulls....

No need to rush with this quest, the Worgs are all over Terrorkar, just kill them as you are taking care of more important quests.
Drop rate is somewhere between non-existant and ridiculous, leaning towards ridiculous, since every worg you find has a large fluffy tail which somehow seems to disappear at the moment you deal the killing blow. Very odd.

Description
Have you come across the timber worgs in your travels? I've had the opportunity to observe them while mapping some of the northern reaches of the forest. I wouldn't recommend getting close to them unless you're prepared for combat. They have no fear of us and won't hesitate to defend their territory. It's fitting that such a creature would have a magnificent tail. I've been trying to collect enough of them to trim a new cloak, but the worgs have a habit of evading my snares. Will you help?

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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Fel Orc Plans
The writing on the plans is far too delicate and precise to have come from any of the fel orcs. You can't make out what the text says, but the implications are pretty clear: the fel orcs are taking orders from the blood elves at Firewing Point. Why would the two forces be working together?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Elusive Ironjaw
Now that I have the fur I'll need for the trim, I've been thinking that the pelt of a particular wolf would make a good hood for my cloak. Imagine seeing your enemy clad in the pelt of the most cunning predator in the forest! I've tried trapping old Ironjaw without success.
