What happens if someone claims the territory right next to mine?

I'm having kind of a hard time with this, if only because our wolves are so humanized. Fox has done several non-realistic wolf things, and most characters on this board have. A lot of what was said in the above post is based on a character's personality. I know that Fox won't stop being territorial just because a new rule is put in place. That would be changing her personality.

a wolf from OS can't march into a pack territory in NWF, for example, and tell them to get lost because the inner claim, or true claim, is in a whole other area (and technically is miles away).

I guess this is a good example. I feel like the above scenario should definitely be allowed happen. It doesn't mean it would have any merit or that the OS wolf wouldn't be eaten for trespassing, but he/she could still do that if they wanted. Just want to make sure that part of it isn't changing.

i think what chelsie is trying to point out is that in the wild, wolf packs have territories that are contiguous with other packs and these territories are often avoided by the pack wolves. they can't waste their energies defending these overlapping territories because they need to expend it hunting, marking, and preserving their rendezvous sit/cache. it's probably okay to anthropomorphize but it would be unrealistic for fox to be expending so much time vigorously defending (or being aggressively territorial of) territories that are not close to the rendezvous.
