Panda does a turn in cabaret (7)

I believe the answer is:

bearcat

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

'panda' is the definition.
(term for the red panda)

'a turn in cabaret' is the wordplay.
'cabaret' can be anagrammed to 'BEARCAT'.
Though, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.

'does' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bearcat that I've seen before include "Animal" , "Cabaret (anag) - red panda" .)

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