The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Do animals commit suicide or is this uniquely a human trait?
I'm not sure. What kind of behaviors have been observed in animals that could be interpreted as suicide?
Well, there are several examples. Lemmings, for instance, have been known to throw themselves off cliffs en masse. Whales and dolphins have been known to beach themselves, and some birds have been observed crashing into windows and walls. While there could be other reasons for these behaviors, some researchers interpret them as a form of intentional self-harm.
