Natural surroundings (7)

I believe the answer is:

habitat

'natural surroundings' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for habitat that I've seen before include "Local environment" , "Environment in which groups normally live" , "Natural home of wildlife" , "Territory" , "Living area" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
