Target of 110-Across

Answer:

ROADRUNNER

Hint:

This fast desert bird is famously pursued by a certain coyote in classic cartoons, but it’s also the name of a high-speed internet service provider.

Explanation:

This clue is a direct reference to another answer in the puzzle—specifically, the one at 110-Across. If 110-Across is "COYOTE," then the "target" is the classic Looney Tunes character the coyote (Wile E. Coyote) is always chasing: the Road Runner. The humor comes from the long-running cartoon rivalry where the coyote never catches his speedy prey.
