Just don't take them to the mountains, or near cliff-faces.

I figure you're just joking and are well aware that this was a myth invented for a Disney nature "documentary", but I feel a duty to defend the noble lemmings against this scurrilous stereotype. They're not suicidal or mindless followers. They do, however, smell terrible.

If "lemmings" becomes the preferred term I fear we will be explaining this forever.

Plus the 1991 game Lemmings.
