Some kangaroos terrifying fowl (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rooster

'fowl' is the definition.
(I know that rooster is a type of Gallus gallus)

'some kangaroos terrifying' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some parts of the word are used).
'ROOSTER' is hidden in the letters of 'kangaroos terrifying'.

(Other definitions for rooster that I've seen before include "Farmyard fowl" , "one going to sleep" , "Bird that wakes up" , "Farmyard bird" , "Early-morning caller" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
