You're going to have big trouble later - this is a simple version of "The
Ascending Pillar Scenario", which is *much* harder.  What you need to do is
to get one, and only one, lemming going to the left, and building bridges
from pillar to pillar.  When you get to the last pillar, dig down, then
to the left, then down, then to the left, then build another bridge.

As for stopping all the other lemmings, you can either dig a hole or use
blockers.  Digging the hole is more reliable.

>as well as Taxing 4 (didn't complete that one either).

Taxing 4: the guys on the right side of the barrier have to dig their way
over to the left side.  Bridges up the left side of the playfield have to
be positioned *just right* (actually, there's a bit of leeway) so none of
the climbing lemmings get zapped.  Try again - it isn't that hard.
