endotherms are mammals like you and me who produce their own body heat and maintain a constant internal condition.
Ectotherms are animals whose internal temperature is greatly influenced by its own environment.

What is the metabolic cost of being warm blooded?
The cost of endothermy vs ectothermy can be very high. An example: A 300 pound python can eat a pig and may live two years with having to eat again. A 300 pound lion needs about 30-40 lbs of meat/day to remain well-fed. It would starve to death if it went about 10-14 days without food.
How does endothermy affect an animals need for food?
To answer this question, you have to first understand what endothermy is. Endothermy is an animal's ability to control its body temperature. It affects an animal's need for food because regulating a body temperature requires huge amounts of energy, so the animal must eat more even when food is not readily available.
