orc is pretty feral.
Apply the feral template to any race. it is now feral
Feral gargun from races of stone, it has a La of +2 and a 4 racial hitdie. Good thing about their hit die though, they are given in the form of a monster class so its easy to do.

Wood elves and wild dwarves from the Forgotten Realms should meet your requirement.

So you need a race with 0 racial HD, since a character with only 1 HD replaces it with his first class level HD.

You apply the Feral template as is to any creature with an LA of no more than +1, you get an LA +2 creature. There are those on the boards who say the Feral template should be a +2 LA template; I don't know why they say that, but it's out there.

Why not play a Gnoll?

Doesn't sound like such a good idea imo. 2 racial HD (and some of the worst at that -3/4 progression is as bad as 1/2 in this case, 1 good save 2+int skill points and horrible list), LA +1, and lackluster abilities... There are much better options, I'd say.

A) Gnolls are a nice to roleplay race, and are present in almost every D&D world. I play them quite often, because they really ARE fun to play. Just believe me.
B) Gnolls get a nice bonus to STR and CON, making them a good choice, even with 2 HD and +1 LA
C) if that's not enough bang for your buck, try the flind gnoll from MM3. Better ability boni, 2 HD +2 LA... if you use a LA buyoff system, they rock !
d) gnolls are sexy.

You know, I thought Ihad some weird tastes ;) . Seriously, if 2 HD/2 LA is not a problem, why not just get yourself a nice wee half-dragon (human, dwarf, orc, gnome, whatever you choose).
