The beast seems all wrong to mother (5)
I believe the answer is:
llama
'the beast' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'all wrong to mother' is the wordplay.
'wrong' indicates anagramming the letters.
'to mother' becomes 'ma' (ma can mean mother).
'all' anagrammed gives 'lla'.
'lla'+'ma'='LLAMA'
'seems' is the link.
(Other definitions for llama that I've seen before include "S American animal related to the camel" , "Load-carrier" , "Even-toed camel relative" , "Alpaca-like animal" , "Wool producer" .)
