Interesting facts about guinea pigs

ybarker — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:43:42 +0000

Despite their name they are not pigs and do not come from Guinea. They originated in the Andes.
Another name for a Guinea pig is a 'Cavy'
A male guinea pig is called a boar and female is called a sow.
In the wild they live in 'herds' with a dominant boar (male) who breeds with the females.
Guinea pigs are unable to make their own vitamin C so it needs to be supplemented into their diet.
