Each race in World of Warcraft have their own mount which is a pet found in the Azeroth landscape which they can tame and ride around with. For example on the Alliance faction, the Humans have access to horses, while on the Horde side Trolls have raptors. Each of the other races also have their own particular pet to ride. To able to ride you need the skill of riding which can only obtained once a wow character has reached level 40. Buy cheap wow gold here !

Among wow players mounts are regarded as status symbols for players who have reached the half way point of the game at lvl 40. In fact for me it is always the goal of attaining my mount (especially my very first one) that gives me the motivation to grind away at the games quests and slaying of monsters while half way through the game.

But really, the best advantage mounts give you is to enable you to travel over land so much faster than by merely walking or running around. On top of that evading monsters is that much easier making game play less stressful when you are trying to get to a far flung destination. It is still possible for some monsters to knock you off your "steed" and force you to fight from time to time, but 90% of the time you will out run them. Also in certain enclosed places like inns, instance runs, quest buildings, neutral towns etc, it is not possible for you to get about on your mount.
