Ox Emoji
What does the Ox emoji mean?
A sturdy brown ox on all fours, facing left, with short horns and a swishing tail: widely used to symbolize raw strength, as in the phrase “strong as an ox.”
This is a male cow, i.e. a brown bull with large, prominent horns. He stands side-on to the viewer in full profile. He belongs to the cattle family and may be used as a draft animal.
Bulls are powerful, grass-eating mammals. They're often raised for meat or kept for breeding to sire calves. In messages, this emoji is used literally to describe an animal, and figuratively to portray someone acting too abruptly and impulsively — like an angry bull.
