Polliwog parent (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toad

'polliwog parent' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for toad that I've seen before include "Loathsome creature" , "Small amphibian" , "Wind in Willows hall-owner" , "Warty creature" , "Wind in Willows motorist" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
