Description
After the big crash with the goblins' Red Thunder racer and a basilisk, Kronkrider hired me on to take care of the track. I don't know what all the animals out on the flats are feeding on to grow so big, but we have to be careful to thin them out so they won't wander onto the track when a race is going on.
Tell you what. If you want to go out and make a little profit, go out and remove the basilisks from the area.
Rewards

The quest was removed in Patch 4.0.3a because the Salt Flats are now flooded due to the event of the Shattering. (The update to this quest is Carcass Collection.)
I completed this quest in vanilla. Trust me, you did not miss out on anything. It was tedious because of the number of monsters to slay and the long distance between each type. Remember, players could not purchase - for 90 gold, which was a hefty sum back in the day - Apprentice Riding until level 40. I wanted to kick Trackmaster Zherin in the shins.
