Emoji Meaning

1

A giraffe standing on all fours, facing left. Typically rendered in yellow or tan with light brown spots. Often used to represent Africa or African wildlife.

2

The world-famous long-necked creature, the giraffe, is considered the tallest resident of our planet. Its coat is patterned with spots in warm yellow-brown tones. In this smiley face you can see only the gentle muzzle of the herbivore turned toward the viewer.

A smiley face can be used to depict the animal itself, or figuratively to refer to a tall man — a playful nod to someone as lanky as a giraffe.
