Frequently asked questions

What is the Unicode code point for Polar Bear?

Polar Bear is a sequence of 4 code points: U+1F43B U+200D U+2744 U+FE0F.

Does Polar Bear support skin tones?

No. Unicode does not define a skin tone modifier for this emoji, so adding one would produce the base emoji followed by a stray colour swatch.

Why does Polar Bear sometimes appear as separate emoji?

It is joined with zero-width joiners. When a device has no single glyph for the combination, it falls back to drawing each part side by side. Both results are correct behaviour.

What is the U+FE0F in Polar Bear?

U+FE0F is a variation selector requesting the colour emoji presentation. Without it, the same base character may be drawn as a monochrome text glyph.

How do I use Polar Bear in HTML or code?

Paste the character directly into UTF-8 source, or use an escape: 🐻‍❄️ in HTML, \u{1f43b}\u{200d}\u{2744}\u{fe0f} in JavaScript.
