A curious fact about guinea pigs is that these small rodents do not originate from India at all.
In fact, guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) are native to the Andes in South America.
Their name can be misleading: in English, they are called “guinea pigs” because, historically, the term “Guinea” was used to describe exotic or distant places, and “pig” refers to their pig-like squeals.
Guinea pigs have a long history of domestication, dating back about 5000 years. These animals were brought to Europe by Spanish and Dutch traders in the 16th century.
Their social structure is complex, and they communicate with each other through a series of unique vocalizations, including whistles, grunts, and squeaks, which they use to express a variety of emotions and needs.
