why are animals such retards who always fight over territory?
>humans do that too

>>29764311
Well for one we're self aware and animals are not. You stupid faggot
>>29764359
>anaimals are retarded and we're not
yeah that's what I said
but WHY?
I hate that. I hate how it's impossible to communicate to them that you're just passing through or wandered in by accident or that you'll be gone in ten minutes. That's why these assholes can't form trade agreements or do anything.
> Humans are better than animals because when we do stupid things we know they're stupid and do them anyway
>>29764384
It's their primordial instinct
>>29764411
yeah, we're on a higher level of understanding even if the action itself is the same
You never owned property, OP.

OP, are you crazy? They need that territory. It has their hunting grounds, their nest/burrow/sleeping hole, sunning spots, access to water, access to mates. Their survival and reproductive success depends on defending that territory. If they are unable to, they have to go steal an occupied territory, which they may fail to do considering they have already been beaten once, or they claim an unoccupied territory which is probably poorly equipped for that animal, otherwise it would already be occupied as well.
This isn't a trivial matter like somebody stealing you seat so you have to go sit three metres away instead. This is like somebody kicking you out of your house, stealing its contents and your job. It's recoverable, but you're considerably more fucked than if you had fought off or killed the invader.
