...and after you work so hard on behalf of this pacifist, nature-loving troll to save these stranded plainstriders by driving them across Southfury River...
...on the other side of the riverbank you can accept The Plainstrider Menace quest to brutally slaughter them, taking only their beaks as trophies.
For the Horde!
We all know these birds are trying to avoid the barrens chat however Blizz won't tolerate that.

What to do
Description
Don' worry, Zen'Taji's not in any trouble. He just been studyin' what happens when the river overflows. Ya see the big tall birds that stand on the riverbank? Zen'Taji thinks they're in trouble. The earthquake and the flood pushed the plainstriders over to this side of the water, but they can't fly back, and they're too scared to swim. They'll die if they stay here. Zen'Taji doesn't like violence, but maybe YOU can attack them and scare them over to the other side. Yes?

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lost But Not Forgotten
Today marks the anniversary of my son Kron's passing. As long as I refused to admit it, I recognize now: Kron is not returning from his crocolisk hunt. I've been working on a project... something that will memorialize Kron's passion for the hunt. It's a crocolisk-tooth necklace...
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- That's the End of That Raptor
Many creatures died when the water came rushin' into the valley. The raptors, however, thrived. They're clever predators, and they've been living off the misfortune of the other creatures. One of the raptors is particularly cruel.
