Bull given snip chasing male vet? (5)
I believe the answer is:
medic
'bull given snip' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'chasing male vet?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'male' could be 'ed' (man's name) and 'ed' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'mic' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for medic that I've seen before include "Word for 'doctor'" , "Physician (informal)" , "Health worker" , "What was Basutoland" , "He may offer treatment" .)
