German Lemming



this cute little guy isn't my character design. he's from this website which seems to be a german comic strip. they're called lemmings but they don't look like the american lemmings from the video game. they do seem to act like them though. there's one flash animation on the site (which is very well designed, by the way) that shows them walking off a cliff in typical lemming fashion. too bad i can't read german. i bet they're funny.

i just looked up lemmings online and found out that they're real animals! little rodents that are "driven by strong biological urges to migrate in large groups" which sometimes ends in exhaustion and death. they'll even jump off cliffs into water. now the video game makes a lot of sense.

They also have a small English branch with some lemming cartoons: http://www.notfunnycartoons.com/
