It has a camel’s tail and a kangaroo’s head! (3)
I believe the answer is:
elk
'it has a camel's tail and a kangaroo's head' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'it has a camel's tail and a kangaroo's head' is the wordplay.
'it' becomes 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT').
'has' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'tail' says to take the final letters.
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'head' says to take the initial letters.
The last letter of 'camel' is 'l'.
The first letter of 'kangaroos' is 'k'.
'e'+'l'+'k'='ELK'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elk that I've seen before include "Type of moose" , "European moose" , "American animal" , "Asian moose" , "Large deer of N Europe and Asia" .)
