I'm sorry you lost your pig. Why did it die? That would determine whether you can continue to use the log or not.

But, FYI, if that's one of those edible logs, they're not good for guinea pigs. They're usually glued together with molasses, and have way too much sugar for guinea pigs to tolerate.

It looks like an edible log to me, and as I said earlier, they're glued together with molasses and are not good for guinea pigs. Save your money, and give you pigs things like herbs and fresh vegetables.
