In a previous article, we reported that new recipes which use bear meat were going to be introduced in Blizzard's World of Warcraft Patch 2.4.

Well, it looks like the developers feel that they need to increase the hunting grounds of the players who will undoubtedly start killing bears left and right to pump up their cooking skills. Thus, the inclusion of the Grizzly Hills in Wrath of the Lich King.

The Grizzly Hills is the ancestral home of the Furlbolgs, Grizzlymaw. While the creatures who live in the area are generally gentle and accommodating, the tribes have been becoming more and more vicious lately thanks to the trappers and goblin Venture Company which have been slowly encroaching their lands.

To make matters even worse, Drakkari ice trolls have begun an invasion from their stronghold of Drak’Tharon Keep. Interestingly enough, the two races have survived for centuries without conflict, but the Furbolgs now find themselves defending their lands from the vicious undead trolls.

This is where you come in. Whether you seek to help Furlbolgs regain their lands or are merely dropping by because there's some good eating in the hills is up to you. Realize though that once this land falls, there is nothing to stop the undead hordes from turning their attention to either Horde or Alliance lands.
