Male escapes and becomes father of 400 children

With a hundred different females too! Personally I think we should sterilise them and control the population. Can you imagine if he hadn't been caught again what would have happened. http://www.itv.com/news/2014-06-06/guinea-pig-to-become-father-to-400-after-breaking-into-female-enclosure/

Staff at Hatton Country World in Warwickshire couldn't understand why they suddenly had 100 pregnant guinea pigs on their hands - until they released one of the male rodents had managed to escape his enclosure and infiltrate the female-only enclosure.

They noticed that the exhausted father-to-be, now nicknamed Randy, had lost a little weight, but did not realise why until they discovered he was actually a male rodent being kept busy in the wrong pen.

Reading the title I thought a prisoner had escaped from Mountjoy.
