Did jaw of large ruminant set on parasite? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yakked

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

'did jaw' is the definition.
(yak can mean to jaw or chat)

'large ruminant set on parasite?' is the wordplay.
'large ruminant' becomes 'yak' (yak is a kind of ruminant. I am not sure about the 'large' bit.).
'set on' says to put letters next to each other.
'parasite?' becomes 'ked' (ked is a type of parasite affecting sheep).
'yak'+'ked'='YAKKED'

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for yakked that I've seen is " Did rabbit".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
