It is usually the safe spot within the zone. NPCs that have issue with their location with regards to the map will graphically appear at the zoneline even though that isn't their location. Likely what is happening is that these NPCs are standing near walls and when they cast their pet summon the pet is summoned within the wall and it graphically appears at the zoneline.

Early in the launch of the server there were gorillas that ALWAYS appeared at the zoneline of Cazic Thule. The reason behind this was that the z-axis for the spawn point of these gorillas was off slightly and it was spawning them below ground. They graphically appeared to the client at the zoneline/safepoint even though they were physically located elsewhere in the zone.

hehe so how many petitions did you receive from players being attacked by an invisible horde of raging gorillas?
