litterbug

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one with no respect for environment' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'butchered big turtle' is the wordplay.
'butchered' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'butcher' mean this).
'big'+'turtle'='bigturtle'
'bigturtle' anagrammed gives 'LITTERBUG'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for litterbug that I've seen before include "Wrapper dropper?" , "Person who drops rubbish in a public place" , "Person dropping refuse in public places" , "Bad citizen" , "Trash dropper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
