    The stuffed creature will spend the next two weeks chilling out in a giant, state-of-the-art freezer as curators Leeds Discovery Centre give damaging bugs and beetles the cold shoulder.

    The emperor penguin has been given the treatment after experts detected potentially problematic pests which can destroy delicate taxidermy specimens.

    Over the next fortnight, the freezer will keep the Antarctic bird at -30 degrees Celsius, killing off any bugs.

    Clare Brown, Leeds Museums and Galleries curator of natural sciences, said: "Bugs, moths and pests can cause serious problems and also have the potential to spread to other parts of the collection, so we have to try and stay ahead of them.

    "Fortunately we’re able to quickly get any at risk specimens into the freezer and down to sub-zero temperatures before pests have a chance to do any major damage."

    The emperor penguin is the tallest and heaviest of all living penguin species and the only one which breeds in the harsh conditions of the Antarctic.
