So you thought nature was creative? Apparently, a shaven guinea pig is a copy of a baby hippo. Not exactly a copycat but once you see this you won’t think of them two separately. Compare!

Your’e actually completely off. Skinny pigs are in fact, not shaven. It is a genetic mutation. I hope you think before you spread around false information next time, because this assumption is wrong. I get many comments on my Hairless guinea pig, when people assume I have done such an inhumane thing as shaving his hair off. It’s not true. Check your facts.
Yes, I have the same comment as the previous person: it’s not shaven but born hairless!
It’s like the hairless cats and dogs, genetic mutation.
Please correct you’re text.
would like to know where to purchase a baby hippo or a skinny pig
Um… I think this was meant to be a joke.. Nobody cares if your guinea pigs are shaven or “born that way” lol.. Get a life.. Besides your “skinny pigs” ha!!
By the way it’s not “you’re text” it’s “your text”.. So correct YOUR text lol
Kate…. Get a life please.
Bazinga!
aaaaawwww….look at der iddy widdy baby…sooocute!!!
I just shaved my guinea pig and it in fact does look the same! Thanks everyone.
i just shaved my guinea pig and it doesn’t look like that. gutted.
ok this is a genetic mutation… Hairless guinea pig. Even so… Who cares if someone were to shave a guinea pig? People shave cats and dogs every day… Geez some people need to lighten up.
I think the “shaven” guinea pig is called a “skinny pig”, they are born without hair I believe. Still super-cute, and so is that hippo!
Actually worthwhile write-up. Spend attention
I have a number of query for you, create to individuals I do not e-mail
Helpful information. Lucky me I discovered your
site by chance, and I’m surprised why this twist of fate did not happened in advance! I bookmarked it.
