Escaped Male Guinea Pig "Randy" Impregnates 100 Females at UK Park


Staff at Hatton Country World in Warwickshire, England, were baffled when all 100 female guinea pigs in their enclosure unexpectedly became pregnant. The mystery was solved when they discovered a single male had slipped in undetected. He had survived among the females for weeks, with the only sign of his adventure being that he looked a bit thinner than usual. 


Park manager Richard Craddock calculated that with average litter sizes, the park is expecting roughly 400 babies, nearly doubling their population of 300. Staff named the legendary intruder "Randy" before returning him to the male enclosure, where they joked he now has plenty of bragging rights. 


The unexpected population boom has forced the park to build a new housing expansion to accommodate the massive wave of incoming babies.
