Hemet Nesingwary is a level 70 quest giver located in Nagrand. He is the author of The Green Hills of Stranglethorn and the leader of a safari to hunt the native game of Nagrand. Previously he was stationed in Stranglethorn Vale and was level 40, but felt that Nagrand offered a greater challenge for the hunt and has since reached level 70. The Stranglethorn Vale quests he used to offer are now given by his son Hemet Nesingwary Jr..
See List of Nagrand NPCs.
He gives the following quests:
-
[66] Clefthoof Mastery (1)
- [68] The Ultimate Bloodsport

Notes
- His name is an anagram of the author Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway was an avid hunter, fisherman, and safari traveler. The theme of the "Great White Hunter" is common in his books. The Green Hills of Stranglethorn is a parody of Hemingway's Green Hills of Africa, a nonfiction work describing his safari adventures.
- Before 2.0.1, Hemet Nesingwary could be found at Nesingwary's Expedition in Stranglethorn Vale. Now his son, Hemet Nesingwary Jr., looks after the camp.
- Sometimes a gnome, Kristen DeMeza, might appear from the road leading to Zangarmarsh and get attacked at the safari by another NPC — an assassin. Killing the assassin will provide the player with a quest.
Wrath of the Lich King
In World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, Hemet Nesingwary will return to Azeroth, moving his operations (via a boat crash landing this time) to the Nesingwary Base Camp, located in Sholazar Basin in western Northrend. (Evidently, his piloting skills have not improved.)
A new organization known as D.E.H.T.A. gives players quests to combat the game hunter's butchery, and even go up against Hemet's hunters.[1]
It is unknown who will replace him in Nagrand.

As Hemet Nesingwary was replaced by his son — Hemet Nesingwary Jr. — when he left Stranglethorn Vale, Hemet Nesingwary Jr. may go to Nagrand to fill in for his father and someone may replace him.
