How to unlock the Natural Leader achievement in Hyper Light Drifter - Definitive Guide
After waiting the duration the snail should start circling around you and with that should be your achievement.
You can find a snail in the eastern quarter of the map at the bottom right location of the following picture. the area with the snail can be accessed by shooting your rail gun at a tower to spawn some tiles. Followed by a long stretch of falling tiles which you need to chain dash across.

Alternatively you can find a snail behind a door that requires 12 key shards, at the bottom right of the village.
There are a number of small snails in the game, and these are the "wild creature" mentioned in the achievement description. Once you find one, you need to simply stand or sit near it for about ten seconds and the achievement will unlock. If you step on it, it will die, so be careful!
The easiest one to find is in the East zone. From the warp point, head south.
On the right side of this platform you'll see some boxes. Destroy those and stand at the far right edge. The screen will shift a bit and you can use the rail gun to shoot the switch across the water, which will create some platforms to dash across.
Follow these platforms to find the snail near a building and a few more collectibles. This is past a large group of disappearing platforms that you'll need to chain-dash across.
There's also an easy one to find in town, the southeast section, but it is behind the 12-key door so you'll have to wait until you've done most of the collectibles. As soon as you walk through the door it is next to the elevator.
