Guinea pigs normally live for five to six years.


Guinea pigs originally come from the Andes, in South America (the oldest recorded guinea pig was fourteen years, ten months and two weeks old).


In the wild, guinea pigs live in groups of five to ten.


A baby guinea pig can run when it is only three hours old!


Young guinea pigs are known as pups, not piglets.
