Guinea Name Pig Scientific
The guinea name pig scientific information and picture can be found on most guinea sites and is not to be confused with the bird.
The exact origin of this term is still an unsolved etymological problem. One of the main theories of its origin is that the term may come from Guineamen, who were in the slave trade and may have been the first to bring the animals from South America to England. However, there are other versions, but no distinctness. Cavia porcellus was known for many centuries and was even one of the food sources for the Incas who also attributed healing powers to the species. Nowadays, they live in countries of South America and their habitats include grasslands, rocky areas, and areas near forests. In captivity, these animals live 4-6 years.

These animals are often kept as pets. They are not noisy and need only a roomy cage and a proper diet. Some people may have allergies when associating with the species. The signs of the allergy include itchy eyes, sneezing, runny nose, persistent cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, a skin rash, and anaphylactic shock (a true medical emergency.) It is recommended to check for allergies prior to buying a pet, because presence of these creatures can be rather dangerous for people with such health problems.
