Creature that turns up in laminated wood (6)
I believe the answer is:
animal
'creature' is the definition.
(I know that animal is a type of creature)
'turns up in laminated wood' is the wordplay.
'ANIMAL' is hidden back-to-front in amongst the letters.
However, I'm not sure how this is indicated.
'that' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for animal that I've seen before include "It shares the world with vegetable and mineral" , "Kind of instinct" , "Beast from Manila" , "Animate being" , "Source of meat" .)
