One pinning name tag on animal? (6)
I believe the answer is:
badger
'animal?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'one pinning name tag on' is the wordplay.
'one pinning name' becomes 'r' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'tag' becomes 'badge' (badging is a kind of tagging).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'r' put after 'badge' is 'BADGER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for badger that I've seen before include "Black and white burrower" , "Burrowing carnivore" , "hound perhaps?" , "nocturnal creature" , "who pins an emblem on?" .)
