Animal’s den (4)

I believe the answer is:

lair

'animal's den' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for lair that I've seen before include "Home of a beast" , "Waylay" , "Home to a wild animal" , "A nautical hail" , "Rail about wild animal's home" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, The Times, The Star Tribune, The Telegraph and the Newsday.
