U+72E6 "狦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+72E6 "狦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that historically referred to a type of wild beast or dog-like animal, often associated with ferocity and found in ancient texts, though its precise meaning has become obscure over time. This character belongs to the Kangxi radical "犭" (dog) and is composed of an additional phonetic or semantic component, reflecting the complexity of traditional Chinese script formation. In modern usage, U+72E6 is extremely uncommon, primarily appearing in historical or linguistic contexts where scholars study classical literature or the evolution of Chinese characters.
