Autotrophic means being able to make your own food. On Earth the only lifeforms that can make their own food are plants and a few species of bacteria such as cyanobacteria. Every other life form on Earth, pandas included, are heterotrophs meaning they get their food by consuming another life form, either a plant or another animal.
