Feral druids are very flexible, being able to tank and DPS by switching their gear without a need to change talents. Able to assist on the DPS when a off tank is not needed. They are most of the time the preferred off tank or even main tank. Their high HP allows them to mitigate both physical and magical damage. Unfortunately, they lack the big cooldowns like warriors and paladins, and can only rely on trinkets to survive high damage spikes. Barkskin is a good cooldown, but can only be used out of bear form. If well itemized, feral can take the least damage out of all tanks.

Feral Druid TBC Classic Gems

Solid stamina gems will be the most used if tanking is the main role.

Delicate agility gems if DPS is the main role.

If the role of DPS and Tanking is requested in the same raids, stack Delicate gems for mixed and DPS gear and Solid on tanking gear.
