Unicode Version 17.0
狍
U+72CD "狍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character representing the Siberian roe deer, specifically referring to a species of small deer known as 狍子 (páozi) in Mandarin. This ideograph belongs to the Kangxi radical 94 (犬, meaning dog or animal) and is often used in zoological and cultural contexts in East Asia, where the animal is noted for its shy nature and distinctive white rump patch. In traditional Chinese folklore, the term is sometimes used metaphorically to describe a naive or easily startled person, reflecting the deer’s cautious behavior in the wild.
