Protection of a territory from other animals or species, often referred to as territoriality, involves behaviors and mechanisms that individuals or groups use to defend a specific area against intruders. This can include vocalizations, physical displays, scent marking, and aggressive behaviors. Territoriality helps ensure access to resources like food, mates, and shelter, thereby enhancing survival and reproductive success. It is a common strategy among various species, including birds, mammals, and even some insects.
Territory is an area that is occupied by one animal or a group of animals and that other members of the species are excluded from.Ex:Yourhouse; the United States

Not all animals do. Some animals, such as lions, elephants, wolves and chimpanzees, are very social. For other animals, it just works best for their survival. Usually, animals live alone due to distribution of food. They will claim a certain amount of hunting territory, or have a specific area they gather from. Allowing other animals into their territory would cut into their supply. Some of it also has to do with mating cycles, and protection of their young.
A territory is an area occupied by an individual or group of animals that they defend against others of the same species.
