Criticise US lawyer for image of WWF (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

panda

'image of wwf' is the definition.
(the Worldwide Wildlife Fund's logo is a panda)

'criticise us lawyer' is the wordplay.
'criticise' becomes 'pan' (informal term meaning to criticise heavily).
'us lawyer' becomes 'DA' (abbreviation for District Attorney).
'pan'+'da'='PANDA'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for panda that I've seen before include "Chinese native" , "Chinese animal" , "Black and white Chinese bear" , "Bamboo-eating animal" , "Bamboo-eating creature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
