Territorial Behavior

The behavior of an animal in defending the area in which it lives
Real World Example
Imagine you’ve just cleaned your living room, arranging everything perfectly, only to have a guest come in and move things around. This frustration you feel parallels an animal's territorial behavior, as both involve protecting and maintaining an area that’s been organized to meet specific needs. Just as you defend your personal space to keep it orderly and comfortable, animals guard their territories to ensure that their resources and living conditions remain undisturbed, ensuring survival and stability.
