Territory sizes differ among animals.

Description
(a) The golden-winged sunbird of East Africa (Nectarinia reichenowi) has a medium territory size that is dependent on the number of flowers it can obtain resources from and defend. (b) Cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) hunt over large areas and can have extensive territories. This male is urine-marking part of his territory in the southern Serengeti, near Ndutu, Tanzania. (c) Nesting gannets (Morus bassanus) have much smaller territories, in which each bird is just beyond the pecking range of its neighbour.
