lemmings. why aren't they extinct? well......

apparently for lemmings, it's a favourable trait to become an hero by means of mass suicide when populations get too high. this causes all of them to migrate in order to find a new means of resources usually by swimming to reach a new habitat. some large groups in certain areas encounter large cliffs overlooking an ocean or large body of water. they will stop until the urge to press on causes them to jump off the cliff and start swimming, sometimes to exhaustion and death. lemmings are also often pushed into the sea as more and more lemmings arrive at the shore...... this type of evolutionary trait is known as a population bottle-neck. fucking lemmings!

Lemmings are well known attention whores. When in the presence of a camera they will do anything to get the cameraman's attention, even if it means jumping off a cliff.

You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Lemmings do not have mass suicide rituals (that actually is a myth that's been around for a very long time....kind of like camel's humps being filled with water).

Also, "population bottleneck" refers to being genetically similar, so similar that one virus can take out a large percent of a certain population of a species.

Quit watching old Disney documentaries, OP.
>> fuck man
fuck you chaners.
you are fucking jealous because the lemmings are just fucking awsome, and you fucking know it.
fuck you /an/.
the lemmings double dare you to do what you fucking know you have to, but dont dare to. to become a fucking hero like they do just every fucking day, with no so much complain.
the fucking lemmings are a fucking mile on you, FUCKING CHANERS, AND THEY ARE JUST FUCKING RATS.

Fucking Disney did a documentary where they scared the shit out of lemming colony and forced them over a cliff. Hence this lame ass belief that the lemmings commit suicide whenever their population swells.

they're not literally 'filled', but they do drink a lot of water and live off it... but yeah, it's not like a giant cooler in there.

Lemmings?
I think they can do pretty much everything if you tell them how to do it....even landing with parachutes or digging through rock walls.

You realize OP, that it was a myth created by a couple of guys who decided they wanted something dramatic in their film on lemmings, right?

They don't really do that.
