They're hungry? That's why most animals would eat each other. If you put two males in a cage though they may fight, but I've never heard of them eating each other. Also if you put a male and a female in a cage and they have sex and give birth to a male the dad may attack the baby as competition for the female.

and i would go to the vet ,

No, unlike hamsters the parents (adults) do not eat thir young. Guinea pigs are strict herbivores and stick to the plants, however they have been known to eat their dead sometimes when starving and cant find food, this situation though, is rare.

No. Guinea pigs are not carnivorous, and will not eat other rodents or other animals.

Cats sometimes eat guinea pigs, particularly baby guinea pigs. They will not usually bother with an older, large guinea-pig.

No. Guinea pigs are herbivores, you need to feed them vegetables and fruit. See the related link for more information

No, this is not a food. Guinea pigs may chew on their fur but they do not eat it. If your pet is fur chewing, put some wood toys in with them.
