What does ๐ฆ Raccoon mean?
A raccoon with its famous black eye mask and ringed tail. Nicknamed the trash panda, it stands for chaotic gremlin energy: raiding the fridge at 2am, digging through junk, hoarding shiny things, or simply being feral in a lovable way. It is also a nod to anyone who looks tired with dark circles under their eyes. Homeowners in North America use it literally after bin-night break-ins.
๐ฆ Raccoon is an emoji from the Animals & Nature category (mammals), added in Emoji 11.0 in 2018. People use it in messages about animal, curious and sly.
