Turkey, another creature with small feet (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trotters

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'feet' is the definition.
(trotter is a kind of foot)

'turkey another creature with small' is the wordplay.
'turkey' becomes 'tr' (I've seen this in other clues).
'another creature' becomes 'otter' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'another' bit.**).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'tr'+'otter'+'s'='TROTTERS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for trotters that I've seen before include "trained horses" , "They carry pigs" , "Sitcom family" , "Racing horses or pigs feet" , "footing?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
