No, lemmings do not intentionally commit suicide. The myth of lemmings jumping off cliffs en masse is a misconception perpetuated by a 1958 Disney documentary that staged the footage. In reality, lemmings do not exhibit suicidal behavior.

Is the lemming migration a myth or fact?

Lemmings do migrate, which is a fact. However, the popular misconception that they commit a mass suicide while migrating is a myth. When lemming populations grow out of control, lemmings will migrate, usually across a river, to another area. Though lemmings can swim, the mass quantities with which they migrate cause most of them to drown while migrating. Lemmings do not do this voluntarily.
