Knowing Blizzard, about a month in to tier fifteen they're going to significantly nerf Beast Slaying, and then also Berserking for good measure.

Whats the point of having a racial if the one time it becomes useful you nerf it lol.... Thats the whole idea of a racial, is that that race has a leg up in select circumstance.
It's not that simple and I'm not in the mood of explaining. Go simcraft. Some hints : it can be higher than 5% (crits more with higher base dmg etc.) or lower (5% of a big number is more than 5% of a lower number - and you can't just add attack to attack because of proc's, synergies, excessive scaling (like next ability X is boosted by 15% because of something) etc.)
It really is that simple. It's on average a 5% dps increase if you are attacking a beast. Let's say you do 100 attacks for 100 damage each before the racial, that would be
No racial total: 10,000-20,000
Racial total: 10,500-21,000
Oh wait it scales linearly and we can see that 10,500 is 10,000 +5% and 21,000 is 20,000 + 5%. You don't know what you are talking about.
Also you can't bring up procs, rng crits and integral rotational abilities already in the kit of the class as a factor of determining the dps increase of the racial. You have it backwards.

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
They are Beasts since MoP, Uncategorized as category got removed and any Uncategorized mobs got changed to Aberration or Beast.
Examples:
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=15305
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=6140
I took those NPC's because they no longer exist and therefore did not got updated by wowhead, they are flagged as uncategorized.
You still have your info wrong. They started categorizing some hydras as beasts in 2.0.1.. They've been beasts for awhile now. Also not sure if we can trust those wowhead links cause wowdb's are showing as beasts http://www.wowdb.com/npcs/6140-hetaera http://www.wowdb.com/npcs/15305-lord-skwol
We will never know unless if you have some proof.
Taking a Comment from WoWhead:
"By Inhaler on 2008/11/07 (Patch 3.0.3)
Hunter's should know that if you're Tracking Beasts she is not considered a beast, so do not rely on the minimap to pick her up."

And the wowdb doesn't really work here because it lists the "Race" of a Mob as well.
wowdb goes: Npc -> Beast -> Hydra -> Mob
wowhead goes: Npc -> Beast -> Mob
Because wowdb lists Hydra under Beast, any Hydra will be flagged as beast, even if there were not Beasts when they were in the game.
