I was puzzled as well, as I haven't heard the term 'trash panda' before.
After searching around I found -
<https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/trash_panda>

Etymology
>From a likening of the black patches around a raccoon's eyes to
similar markings on a panda, and a reference to its tendency to forage
for garbage in urban environments.
