The best way to get HQ animal parts is to use retainers. You can send them on ventures to fetch specific animal parts provided they're high enough lvl for what you want. The higher lvl the retainer is and the better their gear is, the higher chance they have of bringing back HQ items. They will always bring back 10 of the item, but how many of those are HQ depends on luck, your retainer's lvl and their gear.

Btw only combat class retainers can fetch animal parts. Gatherer (miner, botanist, fisher) retainers cannot fetch them, but they can fetch other items relating to their gathering class.
