snouty
Having prominent proboscis
Having a prominent snout or nose, or resembling one.
The word describes animals with elongated muzzles—a snouty anteater—but extends to people whose noses seem to project noticeably: his snouty profile.
Snouty can also suggest nosiness or prying behavior, from the image of an animal poking its snout where it doesn't belong.
