Terrorbirds (Aves Terror) are animals used by the gnomes as mounts. They are found on the west side of the Tree Gnome Stronghold. They are also involved in the Rag and Bone Man II quest, where the ones that don't have any gnomes mounted upon them will drop a special bone needed for the quest.

Killing a Terrorbird is a requirement for the Easy Western Provinces Diary.
