Inclined to defend one's established area (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

territorial

(Other definitions for territorial that I've seen before include "Relating to land ownership" , "defending his turf?" , "Like an army" , "Volunteer soldier" , "to be protective of its turf" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
