Added in Unicode 9.0, it covers the broad category of small reptiles: geckos, anoles, iguanas (depending on the platform&#039;s art style). People use it for pet reptile content (lizards are popular pets), desert and tropical wildlife posts, and &#039;lizard brain&#039; metaphors when talking about base instincts or fight-or-flight responses.<\/p>\n<p>It also shows up in conspiracy joke contexts (&#039;lizard people&#039;) and as a stand-in for any reptile not specifically represented. Pair with a sun or a rock for desert vibes, or use solo when scaly little critter energy fits.
