Endless animal hunting expedition from a distance (4)
I believe the answer is:
afar
'from a distance' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'endless animal hunting expedition' is the wordplay.
'endless' means to look at the middle letters.
'animal' becomes 'ram' (a male sheep).
'hunting expedition' becomes 'far' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
The centre of 'ram' is 'a'.
'a'+'far'='AFAR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for afar that I've seen before include "Inhabitant of Ethiopia" , "Not in this neighbourhood" , "a good way off" , "long way back" , "A long distance away" .)
