Naked, grizzly animal reportedly? (4)
I believe the answer is:
bare
'naked' is the definition.
(I know that naked can be written as bare)
'grizzly animal reportedly?' is the wordplay.
'grizzly animal' becomes 'bear' (grizzly bear).
'reportedly?' shows a homophone (sound like) (I've seen 'reportedly' mean this).
'bear' sounds like 'BARE'.
(Other definitions for bare that I've seen before include "Not covered" , "Naked or empty" , "Nude; uncover" , "Expose" , "Not clothed" .)
