🐼 Panda

A friendly, cartoon-styled face of a panda—a bear-like mammal known for eating bamboo—looking straight ahead. Depicted as a white panda face with black ears and black circles around its eyes.

Often used with an affectionate tone and in association with China, where the animal is found. Sometimes used to represent a red panda. Does not have a full-bodied panda emoji counterpart.

Available as an Apple Animoji.

Google and Facebook’s pandas are shown smiling with an open mouth and tongue.

Panda was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 under the name “Panda Face” and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
