Male hedgehog (4)

I believe the answer is:

boer

(Other definitions for boer that I've seen before include "Dutch-descended South African" , "Dutch settler in southern Africa" , "South African of Dutch ancestry" , "Afrikaans speaker" , "South African descended from Dutch settlers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
