I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">This clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">hunting dog</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that harrier is a type of hound)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">bird of prey</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(harrier is a kind of bird of prey)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for harrier that I've seen before include "Hound; bird of prey" , "that flies!" , "jump jet" , "Cross-country runner and a hound once used for hunting hares" , "Hare hound" .)
