๐ช Meaning: The tall, brown body of a dromedaryย camel with its long neck and signature hump on its back standing on all fours, facing left. Also noticeable is its relatively small head and on the other end, its long tail thatโs hairy at the end.
Widely known as the โship of the desertโ, the camel is known for surviving conditions of extreme heat and dust without needing water for long periods. This survivability of hardship is the main spirit of the ๐ช Camel emoji but it can also suggest other things like the lankiness of a person.
Different platforms vary in their depictions of this emoji. Some display the camel looking straight ahead. This emoji is not to be confused with the ๐ซ Two-Hump Camel emoji, but they can be often used interchangeably.
