Piglike forest dweller (5)
I believe the answer is:
tapir
'piglike forest dweller' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for tapir that I've seen before include "Browser" , "Tropical hoofed mammal with a flexible proboscis" , "Ungulate" , "Long-nosed, hoofed mammal" , "Animal with elongated snout" .)
