Stocking filler for a little beast? (4)
I believe the answer is:
calf
This might be a double definition.
'stocking filler' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'little beast?' is the second definition.
'calf' can be an answer for 'beast?' (calf is a kind of beast). I am unsure of the 'little' bit.
'for a' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for calf that I've seen before include "Newborn cow" , "Young animal associated with soft leather" , "Young bovine animal" , "Young elephant" , "Is it above the ankle" .)
