I've only ever seen him once, but he was just wandering around the first place I looked, so I didn't get a feel for a spawn time at all. Jason: Unfortunately I do not.

I see. Heh, yes ... I can definitely see that. They do have a racoony look about the eyes. Ahhh! I see. Heh, yes … I can definitely see that. They do have a racoony look about the eyes.

It sticks with me because I think that's the only way I could justify taming one. I once knew a hunter so ashamed of how horrible his plagued swine looked, he told people it was a dire raccoon.

There's some spiders that fit the same mold, I believe. I'll run through them this afternoon and see what else needs to be added. BarzahdZ: Bjarne and Mangeclaw aren't unique or semi-unique skins. But don't worry -- they'll get a nice big spot on the "Parade of Popular Pets" that I am working on now. Branan: Spawned and rare creatures have their own lists under <a href="http://petopia.brashendeavors.net/html/articles/special_main.shtml" rel="nofollow">Special Pets</a>. I may do a separate page for skins that aren't common at their level, or more likely I will toss them into the Popular Pets. (There is a note about them at the bottom of the unique page, though.) Znodis: The Popular Pets page will be a lot more suvjective. By the way, what's a Dire Raccoon?

I had to check as am training Naraxis at the moment (Level 65 atm), and I don't want the place flooded with lookalikes :). My other two pets are my 70 Deviate Dreadfang (Tobias) and a generic two-headed red carrion bird (who is my temporary pet in case of new abilities to learn are released).

I've grown to dread any link that goes to thot, and found wowhead to be much more my style. Forgot to add, any plans to add additional WoW database links?

There always seems to be a "What's the rarest pet" topic on any hunter forum. Most discussions quickly turn to 2 types of rare: hard to find/unique pets, and seldom seen pets. For instance, the red crab in durotar is hardly rare, yet the number of hunters with the skin is extremely low especially for alliance. (and that's the kind of thing they're usually looking for) If I may, I suggest changing the name to "Unique and Beautiful Pets." That gives you the freedom to include really nice looking skins that may be a bit more common, and also exclude skins that may be on only one type of mob, but are common and ugly. *cough* Dire Racoon, Plagued Swine *cough* The list is subjective anyway, why not cater it to your tastes. Lastly, I notice this awhile ago, but the Naraxis spider skin also seems to be used by Terokkarantula (http://www.wowhead.com/?screenshot=view&1.20682#12367) He came up on my beast lore as tamable back in February, but you were still getting new BC stuff up, so I didn't think to email. Anyway, great job and very useful content. I really like the new page. There always seems to be a “What’s the rarest pet” topic on any hunter forum.
