Best Answer

Wolves sometimes urinate on their territory which is something people see dogs too. Wolves also paw the the ground where they have marked their territory to secure their territory. When wolves smell the urine, they know the territory has been taken. Wolves also use sound to signify they have marked terriotry. They growl at other wolves as a warning to stay away. They are sometimes very protective.
