Manila's wild creatures (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

animals

'creatures' is the definition.
('animal' can be a synonym of 'creature')

'manila's wild' is the wordplay.
'wild' is an anagram indicator.
'manilas' is an anagram of 'ANIMALS'.

(Other definitions for animals that I've seen before include "brutal men" , "Beasts, creatures" , "Wild beasts" , "Living beings" , "Brutes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
