Drunken lad’s newt in boggy ground (8)
I believe the answer is:
wetlands
'boggy ground' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'drunken lad's newt' is the wordplay.
'drunken' is an anagram indicator.
'lads'+'newt'='ladsnewt'
'ladsnewt' anagrammed gives 'WETLANDS'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wetlands that I've seen before include "Marshy regions of ecological importance" , "Swamps" , "marshy parts" , "Swampy area" .)
