Elephants mark their territory by using a combination of physical and chemical methods. They use their tusks to scrape trees and rocks, leaving behind visible marks that show other elephants the boundaries of their territory. Additionally, elephants also use their urine and dung to leave scent markers that communicate information to other elephants in the area. This helps them establish and maintain their territory boundaries.
