U+737A "獺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, representing the character for "otter," a semiaquatic mammal known for its playful behavior and sleek body. Historically derived from the radical for "dog" or "beast" combined with a phonetic component, it appears in classical texts and modern usage, such as in the Japanese word "kawauso" and the Chinese term "tǎ."
