Wanting to include tiny creature (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ant

'tiny creature' is the definition.

'wanting to include' is the wordplay.
'to include' indicates a hidden word.
'ANT' can be found hidden inside 'wanting'.

(Other definitions for ant that I've seen before include "Six-footer" , "Little boy" , "Termite" , "Hill-dweller" , "Social worker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
