An animal will defend its territory to protect its resources. Two important resources for animals are food sources and suitable mates. If an animal wants to eat and breed it must defend these limited resources from rivals because, like any habitat, a territory has a carrying capacity : a maximum number of animals that can be supported by the habitat.

This is the behavior of some animals who will mark out a territory and often protect it. For example, some animals may "mark" its territory by urinating in various spots, as if to say, "This is MY area - You Stay OUT!" to a competitor (such as another male). Once the animal has "marked" its territory, it is likely to defend that area to the best of its ability. However, if a bigger, stronger competitor comes along, there could be a real fight. Why some animals exhibit this sort of behavior (territorialism) is not thoroughly understood.
Animals will use scent, like poo or urine. If an animal comes to the territory and does not realize, the scent is like a message. It warns "This is my territory, no tresspassing!" If the animal ignores the "message," they may find themselves in for a fight. Deer scrape the ground and leave a pile of dirt, then either poo or leave urine in it. Rhinos also do this, and probably many others.
