Wild creature doing rather badly (5)
I believe the answer is:
dingo
'wild creature' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'doing rather badly' is the wordplay.
'doing' anagrams to 'DINGO'.
Though, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dingo that I've seen before include "Wild Australian dog" , "Yellow Australian dog" , "One running wild in Australia" , "Wild thing" , "Aus. wild dog" .)
