''Wild Life'' is a manga created by Fujisaki Masato, which tells the story of Tesshou, a veterinarian. He is an ordinary high school delinquent who has no skills but a perfect pitch. He goes on to become a veterinarian and uses his skill of perfect pitch to cure sick animals. Despite its comedic and light approach, this comic really has a lot to say about the life of vets and their work on wild life. It is both heartwarming and funny, and filled with adorable animals.

** Ryoto's Mom.
* [[Ridiculously Cute Critter]]: Awww, look at that [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/wild_life/v01/c005/13.html Koala]. However, the critters, while drawn adorable, are somewhat realistically drawn.

** Fun thing: [['''Wild Life]]''' is a [[Show Within a Show|Manga in this universe]] and Hosho learned '''a LOT''' from it even though she did not fully understand and [[Lampshade Hanging|doubt the credibility]].
* [[Super Senses]]: Tesshou has a perfect pitch. He can hear the slightest sounds, such as the beating of the heart of an animal, or the rhythm of its breathing, and uses the skill to tell if the animals are suffering any difficulties. It is of a genetic origin.
