Animals good for, say, North America (5)
I believe the answer is:
fauna
'animals' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'say north america' is the wordplay.
'say north' becomes 'faun' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'america' becomes 'A' (common abbreviation eg in USA).
'faun'+'a'='FAUNA'
'good for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fauna that I've seen before include "list of animals" , "The animals found in a particular area" , "Animals of a region or habitat" , "Wild animal life of an era" , "Flora and - -" .)
