This pet is redeemed through the common 'Sand Scarab' loot card from the World of Warcraft Tomb of the Forgotten TCG expansion. The card may be scratched to reveal a code allowing access to this pet. The code may be redeemed at Blizzard's promotion retrieval page. The pet may be obtained in-game from Landro Longshot in Booty Bay.
Between October 22 and November 5, 2024, players that linked their Twitch account to their Bnet account could earn this pet by watching WoW Twitch streams for at least 4 hours, making it temporarily available again.1-8 of 8

Easily mistaken for a common beetle, the sting of a sand scarab will quickly clear up the misconception should you be unlucky enough to be stung by one.
I got this guy a few weeks ago. I was just walking around, looking at the TCG cards, and grabbed a pack. Bought it, went out into my car, and what do you know... It was in the pack. EDIT: After buying another pack, I found out I got another, and gave it to a friend. Seems like these guys are really common, so you should probably pick up a few packs, and give it a go at getting one of these guys!
Zul'Farrak has always been my favourite dungeon, and this scarab is truly adorable. While yes, he is pretty brown and neutral - he's easily one of my most prized thus far.
It has a nice scanning animation where it tilts its head and sniffs the air with its feelers, like real beetles do when air currents wash over them....very authentic!
Its roughly 2x-3x the size of the Pendant swarm item beetles and shares the same skin.
