Status: True.
Origins: Lemming
suicide is fiction. Contrary to popular belief, lemmings do not periodically hurl themselves off of cliffs and into the sea. Cyclical explosions in population do occasionally induce lemmings to attempt to migrate to areas of lesser population density. When such a migration occurs, some lemmings die by falling over cliffs or drowning in lakes or rivers. These deaths are not deliberate "suicide" attempts, however, but accidental deaths resulting from the lemmings' venturing into unfamiliar territories and being crowded and pushed over dangerous ledges. In fact, when the competition for food, space, or mates becomes too intense, lemmings are much more likely to kill each other than to kill themselves.
I'm not gonna jump off. YOU jump off! Disney's White Wilderness was filmed in Alberta, Canada, which is not a native habitat for lemmings and has no outlet to the sea. Lemmings were imported for use in the film, purchased from Inuit children by the filmmakers. The Arctic rodents were placed on a snow-covered turntable and filmed from various angles to produce a "migration" sequence; afterwards, the helpless creatures were transported to a cliff overlooking a river and herded into the water. White Wilderness does not depict an actual lemming migration — at no time are more than a few dozen lemmings ever shown on the screen at once. The entire sequence was faked using a handful of lemmings deceptively photographed to create the illusion of a large herd of migrating creatures.
Nine different photographers spent three years shooting and assembling footage for the various segments that comprise White Wilderness. It is not known whether Disney approved or knew about the activities of James R. Simon, the principal photographer for the lemmings sequence.
Nature documentaries are notoriously difficult to film, as wild animals are not terribly cooperative. Many nature shows and films of this era — including Disney's "True-Life Adventure" movies and TV's Wild Kingdom — staged events to capture exciting footage for their audiences. The sight of a few lemmings mistaking a lake or ocean for a stream and drowning after swimming out too far, or being pushed over a cliff during the frenzied rush of migration, has become the basis of a widespread belief that lemmings commit suicide en masse when their numbers grow too large.
Some of us prefer not to get our science from fabricated Disney documentaries.

Browncoatuniv,
"When you get a Professor from Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, hell even a half decent acredited university then make a statement."
"So how is it that we don't have more scientists speaking up about this junk science?"
"Scientists who dissent from the alarmism have seen their grant funds disappear, their work derided, and themselves libeled as industry stooges, scientific hacks or worse. Consequently, lies about climate change gain credence even when they fly in the face of the science that supposedly is their basis." - Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Atmospheric Science at MIT.
Well, it's not Harvard......

Don't understand Chrisisall

Quote:As I stated, you are GREATLY mistaken. Science is not a solely poll driven field. When Robert Bakker went against the grain by concluding that dinosaurs were warm blooded, and not, as the MAJORITY of scientist were drilled into thinking, cold blooded. Bakker and John Ostrum were part of a VAST minority,but that didn't change the facts. And the fact is, dinosaur physiology shares far more in common with warm blooded birds and mammals more than they do lizards and amphibians.
Imply, I pretty much flat out stated it, was it too subtle for you? I find it funny and interesting that every position you hold mirrors Bush's words, after all it's wholly not based on scientific opinion because we know where the consensus among the majority and independent majority of science lies.
Quote:Once again, you're wrong. This has nothing ot do w/ Bush, but you do seem to have such a hard on for the Prez, it's no wonder. I vilify Creationist for ignoring the consensus, but more importantly, for ignoring the EVIDENCE! The Creationist and the Kyoto nuts are guilty of the same thing....wanting to cherry pick evidence and arrange an arguement based on a PREVIOUSLY HELD TENNENT. Just as the Creationist say the Bible is literally accurate, the tree hugging Kyoto zealots are hell bent on proving mankind ( mainly Western, Industrialized mankind ) is responsible for destroying the Earth. So, each starts with a template to hold to, then formulates the evidence which best makes their case, as they see it.
It is even more interesting to me that you attack creationists for ignoring the scientific consensus then do the same yourself, that is when the consensus says something that doesn't reflect the Bush administrations position and your own preconceived notions.
Quote:
No, to call that position middle ground is delusional or dishonest at best. All it is, is rehashing the same position of no Global Warming with out the untenable requirement of having to deny that 40 isn't higher than 30. It's not all that different too creationists rehashing their myth as intelligent design.
It is the middle ground, but you're so small that you can't face up to that minor detail. I've never made the claim that 40 isn't higher than 30, that's your delusional position.
