==Background==
 
Many rumors circulate these days about the union of the [[Twilight's Hammer]] and the [[naga]] in Blackfathom Deeps on the coasts of [[Ashenvale]]. The role of the Argent Dawn there is to collect as much information as they can, so they know when and where help is needed.

Thus, they sent Argent Guard Thaelrid as a scout to check on the activity at Blackfathom Deeps, but the night elf has not yet reported back, because he has been grievously wounded. He found out that the cultists, led by [[Twilight Lord Kelris]], sacrifice innocents to the [[hydra]] [[Aku'mai]] for power.

"Shovel Tusk" by Red Knuckle.

Shoveltusk can be found in the Howling Fjord and the Grizzly Hills in Northrend.

From The Wrath of the Lich King Bestiary:

The powerful and ferocious shoveltusk are easily identified by the massive curved antler which protrudes from their heads and the twin sloping tusks that extend from their jaw. The moose-like beasts use their tusks primarily to dig for food, whereas the antler makes for a fearsome ramming weapon in contests to establish dominance over other males.
The shoveltusk are territorial and will protect their feeding grounds with deadly force. Adventurers traveling in Northrend would be wise to avoid these cantankerous and unpredictable beasts.

They have been compared to the talbuks and the elekks of Nagrand, a region found in the shattered realm of Outland.
