Timon, e.g. (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

meerkat

(Other definitions for meerkat that I've seen before include "South African native" , "S African mongoose-like creature" , "Small southern African mammal" , "Small mongoose of southern Africa" , "Mongoose-like mammal of southern Africa" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
