scowl

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

'glare angrily' is the definition.
'scowl' can be an answer for 'glare' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'angrily' bit.

'farm animal breaking ends of stall' is the wordplay.
'farm animal' becomes 'cow' (type of farm animal).
'breaking' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'ends of' suggests removing the centre.
'stall' with its middle taken out is 'sl'.
'cow' going into 'sl' is 'SCOWL'.

'seeing' acts as a link.
