African carnivore (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hyena

'african carnivore' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for hyena that I've seen before include "Dog-like animal with laughter-like howl" , "Carrion-feeding carnivore" , "Spotted scavenger" , "One laughs loud" , "African scavenger" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Sun and The Mirror.
