Prey (6)

I think it could be either:

victim

quarry

'prey' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for victim that I've seen before include "Object of attack" , "One made to suffer" , "Casualty, oppressed person" , "Casualty or prey" , "One killed, hurt or duped" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Penny Press, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Independent, the Evening Standard, The Sunday Times and The Times.
