Didn’t go on foot with the animals (5)
I believe the answer is:
drove
'foot with the animals' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'didn't go on' is the wordplay.
'didn't' becomes 'd' (this could be a standard abbreviation which I don't know about).
'go' becomes 'rove' (roving is a kind of going).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'd'+'rove'='DROVE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drove that I've seen before include "Number of cattle" , "Flock of animals being driven" , "took to the road" , "acted like Mr Toad" , "Travelled by car" .)
