Animal Emoji
Copy and paste animal emoji: pets, wildlife, birds, sea life and insects, plus plants and flowers. Search by animal name. Free, in your browser.
How it works
Each emoji comes with an official name from the Unicode emoji list and a set of keywords from the Unicode CLDR project. The search shows an emoji when every word you type appears in its name or keywords (capitals do not matter), or when you paste the emoji itself. Whole-word matches in the name come first, then whole-word matches in the keywords, then partial matches, and short names before long ones. This page shows the Animals and Nature group: mammals, birds, reptiles, sea life, insects, plants and flowers. Click or tap an emoji to copy it. Emoji with skin tone variants are listed once, in the standard form.
Example: type “bird” to see all the bird emoji, or “flower” for 🌸 🌹 🌻.
