Emoji Meaning
A left-facing snake, typically depicted coiled with a forked red tongue — a classic symbol of betrayal and cruelty.
This illustration shows a green snake of an unspecified species. Its forked tongue—split into two tips, as is typical for reptiles—flicks out, and, unlike a lizard, it has no legs.
Snakes can be extremely dangerous. Some species can deliver venomous bites that are potentially lethal to humans, so exercise caution around them. Because of their distinctive appearance and behavior, snakes are often used figuratively to describe a treacherous or malicious person.
