U+72DF "狟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

狟

U+72DF "狟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character composed of the radical "犭" (dog or animal) and the phonetic component "亘" (meaning extend or continuous). It has two primary meanings in classical Chinese texts: one refers to a type of wild canine or beast, often interpreted as a badger or a similar animal, and the other relates to a term for a fierce or aggressive animal in ancient literary descriptions. Due to its obscurity, it is not commonly employed in modern Chinese writing, but it occasionally appears in specialized lexicons or historical documents from the Warring States period.
