Where you hear it
mmurlocdeath2a.ogg is the wet squeal a murloc makes as it dies. Questers clearing murloc camps for fins, eyes and scales hear it over and over along the coasts of Elwynn and Westfall. It belongs to the same voice set as the aggro cries, recorded with the same gurgling technique. The sound is short and funny rather than sad. That comic quality is why it shows up so often on Discord soundboards.
