The Little America hotel lobby in Cheyenne has been the unnatural realm of Emperor the Penguin for decades. The mascot from Antarctica is posed in a glass cabinet near the entrance. The original Emperor the Penguin rules a hallway of the Little America Hotel and Resort in Little America, Wyoming. Cheyenne's Emperor appears identical, but we don't know if it has a parallel tale of death in transit and taxidermy immortality.

Inside the hotel -- the Indian in the entrance is actually more interesting than the stuffed penguin.

Emperor Penguin still stands proudly in the foyer of the resort. It is located in a glass case just inside the door.
