      But why would a lemming attack a human?

      Because that tiny snow potato is basically running on pure rage and territorial instinct. Lemmings, especially the Norwegian ones, are surprisingly bold for their size. When you step near their tunnels or block their path in the snow, they don’t see a human; they see a massive intruder stomping through their home.

      So they do what any proud little furball would do: scream, charge, and try to scare you off, even if you could crush them just by existing. It’s not bravery, it’s panic mixed with attitude. Think of it as nature’s smallest berserker moment.

      Fun fact (that’s actually kinda dark):

      The famous scene of lemmings dramatically throwing themselves off cliffs? Yeah… totally fake. It comes from Disney’s 1958 documentary White Wilderness, part of their True-Life Adventures series. The filmmakers staged the whole thing: they actually imported lemmings to a filming site in Alberta (where no lemmings even live) and literally herded them off a cliff to make it look like a “mass suicide.”

      That one scene created the entire myth that lemmings kill themselves in huge migrations. In reality, when lemming populations explode, they just migrate to find food, and some accidentally fall into rivers or off ledges along the way. But thanks to Disney’s camera trickery, they’ve been stuck with that tragic reputation ever since.

      Basically, the lemmings didn’t jump, they were pushed for cinematic drama.

      You gotta give it the Lemming, it’s not afraid of something 100 times it size and it’s ready to risk its life for it.

    4. His heavily furred feet tilted with anger, punch the tracks of a vicious beast into the snowpack. I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen it.

      Being such a small dude and still deciding to tell a giant 1000x taller than you to f’off is honorable.

    6. It’s when the ones floating down with umbrellas or carrying dynamite show up that you’ve got to worry.

    7. Honey badgers got nothing on these savage creatures. Just look at those eyes, they were filled rage and the urge to tear you apart! Even the way it moves, it’s so agile and aggressive. I wouldn’t want to get on the bad side of these little guys. Despite the fact that I don’t share a continent with them, just the thought of being on the same planet is enough to give me nightmares!

      Why isn’t he digging holes or dropping bricks to make a ramp or exploding?  Where is his little blue shirt?

    9. Squeaky is so mad, man 😭 He’s still so ridiculously cute though bouncing around like that
