Genetic variation: The variety of genes within a particular species, population or breed causing differences in morphology, physiology and behaviour.
Inbreeding: The breeding of closely related individuals. An inbred population usually has less genetic variability and this is generally disadvantageous for its long-term survival and success.
Monogamous: Having only one mate during a breeding season, or throughout the breeding life of a pair.
Territory: Area occupied and defended by an animal, a pair of animals or a colony.
