Removed in Forever

Faerie Fire (Feral) (25): Removed as a talent: Faerie Fire itself now works in Cat and Bear Form for no resource on a 6-second cooldown.
Mangle (6): Forever's Mangle was renamed Primal Bite and lost its debuff. The record the client lists here is an unused leftover finishing move that was never a Classic Era trainer spell, not that ability.
Improved Enrage: No longer a talent: Blizzard's deep dive says its bonus is now baseline, and Enrage now generates 10 initial Rage.
Improved Mark of the Wild: No longer a talent: Blizzard's deep dive says its bonus is now baseline.
Feral Faerie Fire: Removed as a talent: Blizzard's deep dive says Faerie Fire (Feral) is now a baseline ability, usable in Bear and Cat Form for no resource on a 6-second cooldown. See Faerie Fire.
Primal Fury: Removed as a separate talent: its Rage and Combo Point on crit effect was merged with the old Blood Frenzy into the single 2-point Blood Frenzy talent (Blizzard's deep dive).
Feral Aggression: Removed as a talent: its Demoralizing Roar improvement is now baseline, and Demoralizing Roar is tuned to match Demoralizing Shout (Blizzard's deep dive).
Improved Thorns: No longer a talent: Blizzard's deep dive says its effect is now baseline, and Thorns also scales with the caster's spell power.
Natural Weapons: Removed as a talent: Blizzard's deep dive says it was folded into Restoration's Naturalist, which now also adds a percentage to all damage you deal.
Tiger's Fury: Gone (a level-24 trainer spell in Classic). Shifting Power replaces it.
King of the Jungle: Removed: a Feral talent in the early beta. Shifting Power is the Cat's new energy tool.
