U+72F5 "狵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+72F5 "狵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character primarily used in classical or literary contexts. Composed of the radical for dog or beast (犭) and a phonetic component, its traditional meaning refers to a type of shaggy or long-haired dog, and it has also been associated with the idea of a beast that is fierce or hairy. In historical Chinese texts, it occasionally appears in descriptive passages or as a variant form, but it is not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin, making it more of a historical or scholarly curiosity within the Unicode standard.
