'where you'll find a' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'grizzly naked hole by the sound of it' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'grizzly' could be 'bear' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'bear' is found in the answer.
'hole' could be 'pit' (pit is a kind of hole) and 'pit' is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
