A little context

What the fox emoji means

๐ŸฆŠ (fox, Emoji 3.0) is clever and cute: autumn captions, the animal, โ€œsly as a foxโ€, the Firefox joke, and a nickname or compliment (โ€œfoxyโ€). It sits naturally with ๐Ÿ‚ ๐ŸŒฒ ๐Ÿงก and, for the sly reading, with ๐Ÿ˜. The face is orange on every platform and has no variants.
