Chipmunk Emoji

Animals

A side profile of a small, brown-and-white chipmunk shown sitting on its haunches. It features distinct stripes running down its back and a bushy tail, accurately reflecting the look of these common backyard rodents.

Usage Context

Used to represent autumn, forest wildlife, or the act of gathering and storing food. People often send it when talking about nature or cute woodland creatures. It is frequently grouped with the squirrel emoji, though the chipmunk is specifically recognized by its smaller size and bold facial stripes.

History

Added in 2015 as part of Unicode 8.0, the chipmunk was introduced alongside a wave of new animal icons intended to diversify the natural world category in chat apps. Its design was influenced by the need for more recognizable regional North American wildlife in digital communication.
