Well, I did go and look up lemmings in a single encyclopedia.
There's more than one species, but at least one of them does 
migrate when the area becomes over-populated.  They spread out,
and can and do swim across streams and rivers.  

Sometimes they drown if the river is too deep or rough or 
whatever.  But it's an accident.  They don't drown on purpose.
