Green site organised for nature reserve (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

serengeti

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'nature reserve' is the definition.
'serengeti' can be an answer for 'reserve' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'nature' bit.

'green site organised' is the wordplay.
'organised' indicates anagramming the letters.
'green'+'site'='greensite'
'greensite' with letters rearranged gives 'SERENGETI'.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for serengeti that I've seen before include "area of the plain" , "Wildlife-rich region of Africa" , "Huge plain in Tanzania" , "reserve for game" , "area of Tanzania" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
