It lives in a lodge (6)
I believe the answer is:
beaver
'it lives in a lodge' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for beaver that I've seen before include "Work hard" , "tree-feller" , "Brown, furry rodent" , "Rodent - fur - hat - glove - cloth - junior Scout" , "Amphibious animal, lives in lodge" .)
