Boar about to eat insect and a large bear (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
giant panda
'large bear' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both animals as well as being singular nouns.
I also know that 'large' relates to this answer.
'boar about to eat insect and a' is the wordplay.
'boar' becomes 'pig' (boar is a type of pig).
'about' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'to eat' indicates putting letters inside.
'insect' becomes 'ant' (ant is a kind of insect).
'pig' written backwards gives 'gip'.
'gip' going around 'ant' is 'giantp'.
'giantp'+'and'+'a'='GIANT PANDA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for giant panda that I've seen before include "furry animal" , "endangered species" , "Large black and white mammal" , "temperamental Chinese import" , "Creature" .)
