Mammal with an elongated snout (5)

I believe the answer is:

tapir

(Other definitions for tapir that I've seen before include "A trip (anag) - animal" , "Hoofed mammal; I trap (anag.)" , "I part with the pig-like animal" , "nocturnal beast" , "Tropical hoofed mammal with a flexible proboscis" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
