In patch 2.4, there was some stealth changes to the way aggro is generated by pets. Folks have been complaining about pulling hate from their pets far more often than pre-patch, and Blizzard decided that there were enough complaints that they would investigate.
Long before I started playing, it became common hunter knowledge that Boars were the best tanking pets in the game. They have the Charge skill that was able to generate massive amounts of aggro on a single target in an instant. It was the perfect tank, and almost impossible to pull hate off of. Been that way for years.
Unfortunately, when people brought up the aggro issues, Blizzard's "investigation" revealed that the Charge ability has not been functioning properly for years. It's not supposed to generate any addition aggro on a target at all. Hunter's have sworn by Boars as solo-tanking pets for years, and Blizzard has now said "yeah well... tough shit guys."
