Monkey makes gaffe (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

howler

This clue is a double definition.

'monkey' is the first definition.
(I know that howler is a type of New World monkey)

'gaffe' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'makes' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for howler that I've seen before include "Gaffe" , "Schoolboy error - wolf?" , "Glaring error" , "Grievous error" , "Glaring mistake made by schoolboy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
