Type of bear (5)
I believe the answer is:
panda
'type of bear' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for panda that I've seen before include "Black and white Chinese bear" , "Large bear from the bamboo forests of China and Tibet" , "Bearlike animal" , "(a cuddly-looking bear)" , "Threatened mammal" .)
