Agree about tank, dropping back -- that's hairy! (10)
I believe the answer is:
chimpanzee
'that's hairy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'agree about tank dropping back' is the wordplay.
'agree' becomes 'chime'.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'tank' becomes 'panzer' (type of German tank).
'dropping back' means to remove the last letter.
'panzer' with its last letter removed is 'panze'.
'chime' placed around 'panze' is 'CHIMPANZEE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for chimpanzee that I've seen before include "animal" , "Close relative of man" , "Intelligent ape" , "Great ape" , "Primate" .)
