New Pets
Today's patch included 7 new battle pets. This brings us to a current total of 77 datamined pets from Shadowlands Alpha!
Note that there are duplicates with placeholder(PH) names, however each has a unique ID which indicates separate pets. These will likely be updated in a future build. As with all things Alpha, not all are guaranteed to make it to release.

Is It A Frog? A Duck?
Two new interesting models appeared in the latest Alpha build, however it's unclear if they will be tied to a collectible battle pet. [source]
The first is named "Frog Duck" (pictured above), which looks like its name (we think it's more frog than duck).
The second new model is an adorable little piranha in a bowl (pictured right). My, what big eyes you have!
We'll have to wait and see where these two models turn up, but we certainly hope they'll be part of our collections.
What do you think of the new pets and new models? What would you name your frog-duck if you collected one? And will this strange creature be as close to an actual duck as we'll ever get in World of Warcraft?
The Names Elmerfudde. How do they expect me to have Duck Season if they cant even make a duck. Theres dozens of Wabbits but not one duck except for a rubber duck toy. First HBO takes away my gun and now WOW wont even give me a duck to shoot.
When there is a pet that could be one of two possibilities, I usually try to mash the names together to create a new one.
I think I'll leave this one alone...
