Like a crocodile arranging a Nile trip? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reptilian

'like a crocodile' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'arranging a nile trip?' is the wordplay.
'arranging' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'nile'+'trip'='aniletrip'
'aniletrip' is an anagram of 'REPTILIAN'.

(Other definitions for reptilian that I've seen before include "Like a crocodile" , "Snake-like" , "Contemptible" , "Nasty" , "like a lizard" .)
