20a. PREDATOR, animal hunting
P, quietly + RED, left, as in communist, + A TOR, a hill

4d. The ZODIAC is a " belt-shaped region of the sky"

I haven't a clue about Robin's quiver, I'll have to leave it to Jono, perhaps

I suspect the intention is a cryptic play on “quiver” i.e. where Robin Hood keeps his arrows and in the sense of trembling. Not a great clue if that’s all there is to it.
