It's of the camel kind, but with antlers (3)
I believe the answer is:
elk
'with antlers' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'it's of the camel kind but' is the wordplay.
'it's of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ELK' can be found hidden inside 'camel kind but'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elk that I've seen before include "Moose-like deer" , "Type of moose" , "Large deer of N Europe and Asia" , "Asian moose" , "Big deer" .)
