Fewer around creature (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ewe

'creature' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'fewer around' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'EWE' is hidden within 'fewer'.

(Other definitions for ewe that I've seen before include "The sort of beast" , "Lamb supplier" , "Wool producer" , "Directions" , "Scottish loch" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
