Hey guys, on this thread I will update on the new tamables found by petopians that will be introduced in 5.1.
Credits due to the fine people of Petopia!
Oh thanks to SilentTracker for reminding me to mention this, All of the uncredited finds are founded by Caelan. I'm not taking credit for anything, I'm just condesing all the stuff into one thread.
Unofficial patch notes
1. Arcane Serpents ( model name; netherdragon) are tamable on the PTR server! On the PTR they are classified as beasts, while currently on live they are dragonkin. Once tamed, they are classified as serpent and will get serpent's swiftness as their family skill. The Mana Wyrms at belf island and the sea serpents in Vashjir are not yet tamable.
2. Chibee's size has been greatly reduced. It is currently a huge silkworm on the live server.

Q: Can we Hunters expect increased Stable Space with these new aweomse pets to tame in 5.1? (it's low for 8years now T_T)
A: I'm torn on that. It's fun for hunters, but your pet is supposed to be your boon companion, not a list to fill out.[/QUOTE]

Credit to Kalliope and Caelan for finding Bombyx, the Pandarian rare; Dark Silkworm.
Here are the some changes on Pandarian rares.
- Portent, Rockhide, Bristlespine, Stompy, Savage, and Bloodtooth's tracks are now facing the correct direction. (Thanks, Quivering!)
- Glimmer and Patrannache (thanks, Quivering!), as well as Hexapos's tracks are still backwards.
- Silkworm tracks have been datamined here and here. (Thanks, Loki!)
- No tracks have been found at all yet.
Non-Pandarian rares highlights, taken from the thread linked

NORTHREND
Borean Tundra
Note: The new tamable Arcane Serpents are classified as Serpent when tame, and so they will learn Serpent Swiftness which is the physical attack speed buff, same as Hyena or the normal Serpent(cobra) modal. Currently in game, they are classified as dragonkin instead of beast.

Arcane Serpent
Lv. 71-72 Serpent
Map Location
Notes: Not a new creature, but a newly tameable one! These fellows were formerly dragonkin. They can be found at the bottom of the Nexus area of Coldarra and along the purple cracks in the ground.
(Credit to Wain for the discovery!)
Spirit of the North
Lv. 70 Serpent
Map Location
Notes: Not a new creature, but a newly tameable one! These fellows were formerly dragonkin. There are only two of these. They spawn and path in midair, one about 90 yards off the ground and another about 90 above that. The lower one paths in a slightly tighter circle than the higher one. They both move very slowly.
HOW TO TAME; The easiest way to tame is to target the lower one, fly mid between it and the ground, dismount and quickly agro it with a shot, maybe concussive.
Dragonblight
(Credit to Wain for the discovery!)
Arcane Wyrm
Lv. 71-72 Serpent
Map Location
Notes: Not a new creature, but a newly tameable one! These fellows were formerly dragonkin. They were changed to the blue skin during this patch. They can be found all throughout the indicated area, mostly attacking Lothalor Ancients.
