Helpful Hints
- This clue's indicators are 'lost' and 'deprived'. Both of these are deletion indicators, guiding us to remove some fodder from other fodder. We'll be deleting twice in this clue.
- This clue's fodder is 'Hunted', 'bear', 'sleep', and 'grizzly'. We'll need to find short (and a bit loose?) substitutes for two of these and use them with the letters of the others, as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
- Our definition here is 'with an appetite', and our answer will be a word for that.
