I don't think I'm the resto druid in question since Tal spoke of the druid tanking a heroic instance, but just in case... I'm 33 resto/28 feral.
The key feral talents available for tanking, I took:
* 5/5 Ferocity - reduces rage cost of most skills by 5
* 3/3 Feral Instinct - +15% threat
* 3/3 Thick Hide - +12% armor
* 1/1 Feral Charge
* 2/2 Feral Swiftness - +4% dodge in bear form
* 3/3 Sharpened Claws - +6% crit
* 2/2 Primal Fury - gain 5 rage on crits
* 3/3 Survival of the Fittest - -3% chance to be crit in bear form, +3% to all stats
I don't feel that I'm as tough as a full feral tank, who will have taken 5/5 Heart of the Wild (+20% stamina) and Predatory Instinct (+crit), but it's not a bad compromise set.
I do have largely separate bear gear and cat gear, for obvious reasons.
