This is the hippo icon I added to cygicons-0.dll a few months ago (it's
part of the cygutils package):

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/cygutils/src/cygicons/hippo.svg?cvsroot=cygwin-apps

(converted to .ico):
http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/cygutils/src/cygicons/hippo.ico?cvsroot=cygwin-apps

If you install the run2 package, and then execute this setup script:

/usr/bin/config-run2-example.sh

You'll get a shortcut using that icon, which
  1) launches mintty if you don't currently have an Xserver running
  2) launches rxvt-unicode if you DO.

I didn't draw the original hippo, but I did create the various icon
size/resolution versions of the image and created the .ico. The original
artwork was released into the public domain by Michal Pecyna
    http://openclipart.org/media/files/TheStructorr/1751
but that link appears to be dead.
