Finished full of wrath and in jeopardy (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

endangered

'in jeopardy' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'finished full of wrath' is the wordplay.
'finished' becomes 'ended' ('end' can be a synonym of 'finish').
'full of' is an insertion indicator.
'wrath' becomes 'anger' (synonyms).
'ended' enclosing 'anger' is 'ENDANGERED'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for endangered that I've seen before include "exposed to risk" , "Put in jeopardy" , "Like some species" , "in a perilous situation" , "Vulnerable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
