Amphibious reptile (abbr) (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gator

(Other definitions for gator that I've seen before include "one snaps in America" , "beast?" , "One taking snaps" , "Informal American term for semi-aquatic reptile" , "Crocodilian (informal)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
