Member of the beastly lodge taken in by Immanuel Kant (3)
I believe the answer is:
elk
'member of the beastly lodge' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'taken in by immanuel kant' is the wordplay.
'taken in by' indicates a hidden word.
'ELK' is hidden in the letters of 'immanuel kant'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elk that I've seen before include "Large northern deer" , "Moose-like deer" , "Big beast" , "Big deer" , "Fraternal American" .)
