It depends on where you live as to whether you even allow your guinea-pig outside. Guinea pigs do not have a lot of tolerance for cold weather, so they should be kept inside or under cover in a dry hutch. However, if you live in a more temperate area, you can leave your guinea-pig outside in a secure hutch. If you release it to run in a garden, it will just graze on whatever grass or tasty plants it finds, and if danger approaches, it is likely to run and try to hide. Never leave guinea-pigs loose outside unsupervised, as they could be attacked and killed by cats and dogs. Guinea pigs are surprisingly fast and nimble if they are not very tame, and will try to run away. If you placed some plastic water pipes around the yard, they would probably run towards them as a place to hide. Once they're inside something like this, you can gently pick up the pipe (holding both ends so the guinea-pig doesn't slide out and fall heavily on the ground) and return the guinea-pig to its hutch. Guinea-pigs don't know if weeds have been poisoned, and they will likely eat things like thistles and dandelions. If these plants have been hit with weed-killer, it will cause the guinea-pig to die also.
