Pretty much. This sucks. We are agreeing too much to get the feeling. Except: Up and down are not ingrained in the fabric of the universe. There is no up and down except as perceived by someone. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and assume you know this, just chose a bad example.

Here's a non-philosophical book about it. I read it a long time ago and don't recall what field he called it, but it's basically about animal behavior. He describes the territorial behavior of all sorts of animals, from the tiniest to the biggest. Interesting stuff.

Another nitpick =>

> The instinct to defend ones own & respect others territory ...

Actually, respecting others territory is learned. If someone has something you want, the instinct is to take it unless it's current controller can stop you. Children naturally steal and have to be taught not to. Just a quibble.
