Maybe sheep has drink at home with insect (8)
I believe the answer is:
ruminant
'maybe sheep' is the definition.
(I know that sheep is a type of bovid)
'drink at home with insect' is the wordplay.
'drink at' becomes 'rum' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'insect' becomes 'ant' (ant is a kind of insect).
'rum'+'in'+'ant'='RUMINANT'
'has' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ruminant that I've seen before include "Cud-chewing animal" , "Animal that chews the cud" , "Cud chewer" , "Animal chewing cud" , "Cud chewing mammal" .)
