Guinea Pigs - Communication
Guinea Pigs communicate with both body language and sounds. If a young or adult Guinea Pig squeals loudly, it's hungry or just needs human contact. Also a loud squeal may be an in danger warning. Squeaks, grunts, and coos are the sounds of contentment and pleasure. The angry chattering is the precursor to a fight or a bite. The low constant rumbling rattle is a sexual behavior. If a Guinea Pig leaps straight up into the air, it's the sign of a healthy and happy animal. Rising up with legs stiffened or showing teeth means threatening. Stretches are the signs of comfort and relaxation.
