This set drops entirely in The Wailing Caverns, an instance in the Barrens. This is intended to be a Druid set, however, many rogues roll on the Leggings and Shamans can use the set just as well.

The real question is: what hood matches this set perfectly?

As individual pieces, with the exception of the chest, the agility and stamina are pretty nice for a hunter. Honestly though, the set bonuses are totally designed for a Druid or a Shaman.

Another set close in level to this is the Defias Leather set dropped in the Deadmines. Not as much agility as this set, but more strength and stamina. Its set bonuses seem more tailored to rogues as well.

As of 4.0.0 the set bonuses have changed to:
2 +5 int
3: Expertise rating by 4
4: +5 int
5: +10 int
Clearly now a more druid bonus but still good base statwise for rogues and hunters

Excellent set for druids and shaman of almost any spec, because at this level you might need to do stuff other than your specialized roles. Usable for hunters and rogues, but far better for shaman and druids because of the set bonuses.

Gotta love that picture.

Pretty good set for lower-mid level druids (I would imagine through about level 30 at most).

(Item #15357) are the only Leather shoulders that match perfectly to this set.

If you aren't trying to transmog, (Item #61107) works AMAZING with this set. However, they are cloth. So they would be best suited for around town/roleplaying, unless they remove the armor type restrictions on mogging. I'll try to remember to upload a picture of the set with them in a bit.

My favorite?
http://classicdb.ch/?compare?items=6473:10410:10411:61107:10412:10413:7357.862:16039. This set for sure :D
What is in it?
Belt of the Fang,
Footpads of the Fang,
Gloves of the Fang,
Leggings of the Fang,
Armor of the Fang,
(Item #61107),
Elder's Hat: (Item #7357) and
Ta'Kierthan Songblade: (Item #16039).
Yes, I also found a sword with it. It looks like a Scimitar, but the grip has the right color, purple.

This set has undergone a few major changes since WoW's release, but its original incarnation is definitely the epitome of Vanilla's strange itemizations. Most notably, the chest piece provided only 2 Strength and 7 Spirit.

Originally, only the leggings were of rare quality, all four other items were uncommon. The combined stats on it were:

310 Armor - 11 Stamina - 9 Strength - 18 Agility - 7 Spirit
On top of that, the set bonuses were also a bit different.

2 pieces: Increases damage done by Nature spells and effects by up to 7.
3 pieces: Increased Staves +2.
4 pieces: Increases healing done by spells and effects by up to 11.
5 pieces: +10 Intellect.
