Angry with nothing inside apart from strong meat (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wild boar

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

'strong meat' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'angry with nothing inside apart' is the wordplay.
'angry' becomes 'wild' ('wild' can be a synonym of 'angry').
'with' indicates putting letters inside.
'nothing' becomes 'o' (looks like zero - 0).
'inside apart' becomes 'bar' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'o' put into 'bar' is 'boar'.
'wild'+'boar'='WILD BOAR'

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wild boar that I've seen before include "Game" , "Feral pig" , "strong meat" , "Non-domesticated pig" , "Untamed pig" .)
