TheWoWDBIt now says 12 for the quest. Also only the Xibalan Ravasaur counts towards this even though you get a mouseover for the quest with Xibalan Saurid's. While it shows they count in the mouseover killing the smaller ones gives no credit. Version 8.0.1.26892.

Description
I had really hoped this area would be more hospitable. The Zandalari have been no help whatsoever in clearing this space for archaeological exploration. Before we can even begin to uncover Xibala's secrets, we must make it safe for those less combat savvy to do their work. You will find the ruins ahead infested with all manner of carnivorous beasts. The few intrepid explorers who ventured within have all failed to return. Local ecology will not stand in the way of progress, {name}. Understand?
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Bloodwatcher Legacy
Greetings, <name>. I have been sent on behalf of my father, High Examiner Tae'thelan Bloodwatcher, to oversee the extraction of all fossils, relics, and artifacts from this area. My sources inform me that an object that could advance the Horde's cause may be buried beneath this very site.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Scrying for the Eye
On behalf of the Horde we seek a relic called the Eye of Xibala. The locals have been no help whatsoever and Miss Tae'shara insists that we use her survey equipment. I abhor guesswork. Instead we shall use a more direct method: scrying. I will mark three locations on your map.
