The Sun Darter Hatchling is a secret pet hidden in World of Warcraft, made by Blizzard Entertainment. The Hatchling is found at the back of the Cavern of Consumption, which contains several puzzles.

The primary solving hub for this puzzle was the WoW General Secret Finding Discord.

Required Items
In order to solve all the puzzles in the Cavern of Consumption, players require several consumable items. Here is the complete list:
Cave of Consumption
On June 16, 2017, the Cave of Consumption was discovered along the north coast of Winterspring, at coordinates (57, 16). Upon entering the cave, players are immediately confronted with the first puzzle.
Elemental Gates
The first puzzle players encounter in the Cave of Consumption consists of two elemental barriers: a fire barrier, and a fel barrier. By using a Major Fire Protection Potion, players are able to pass through the fire barrier unhindered. Since fel magic is comprised of all schools of magic, the fel barrier can be bypassed by drinking the other 5 types of Major Protection Potions (Arcane, Frost, Holy, Nature, and Shadow).
Diligent Watcher
Beyond the elemental gates, there is a stone gargoyle named Diligent Watcher. Attempting to cross its path, which the player must do to continue deeper into the cave, will instantly teleport the player outside of the cave.
However, if the player is in skeleton form, obtained by consuming a Noggenfogger Elixir, they will be able to pass the gargoyle undetected. The predominant theory is that the gargoyle can only detect living beings, and while in skeleton form, the player is not technically "alive".
Vines and Water
In the next section of the cave, the path splits: one tunnel is covered with impassable vines, and the other is blocked by a blue water barrier. Using a Scotty's Lucky Coin charge will transform the player's character, and attune them with the vines. In this form, the player is able to pass through the vines to the room beyond.
Behind the vines, there is a pool of water which contains several Water Stones. Collecting one and using it adds the Wet buff to the player character, which lasts for 15 minutes.
The Wet buff allows the player character to pass through the blue water barrier, and continue deeper into the cave.
