Can perhaps shoot game here? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

preserve

I believe this is a double definition.

'can' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'perhaps shoot game here?' is the second definition.
(another term for a game reserve)

(Other definitions for preserve that I've seen before include "Keep out of harm's way" , "Area of activity" , "Keep safe from spoilage" , "Keep (something) safe" , "Maintain, protect from decay" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
