Short erect tail (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scut

'short erect tail' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for scut that I've seen before include "Small tail as of rabbit" , "Cuts into a small tail" , "Deer's tail" , "Reindeer's tail" , "Short tail, such as rabbit's" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the Universal, The Guardian and The Telegraph.
