Toothless mammal with a long snout that feeds on termites (8)

I believe the answer is:

anteater

(Other definitions for anteater that I've seen before include "Sticky-tongued mammal" , "Insect consumer" , "Scaly insectivore" , "Long tongued creature" , "One's looking for workers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
