Best Answer

No animal commits suicide in groups.

Most would believe the answer to be lemmings, a type of rodent. However, lemmings do not commit mass suicide - that was a myth invented by a badly made Disney wildlife documentary, in which the film makers actually threw the poor creatures off cliffs to make it look like suicides.

What actually happens is mass dispersal, which occurs when the lemmings' food source runs out. They will head in a straight line to migrate, and often build up along shorelines en masse, in their instinct to find greener pastures. Sometimes these buildups result in their deaths. They are capable of swimming broad expanses of water, but icy waters will kill them.
