Monterey Bay Aquarium helps Google create more authentic animal emojis

(KION) In honor of World Emoji Day, Google announced that it is introducing new emojis and updating some that already exist.

Some of what was updated includes animal emojis, and Google said it worked with experts from the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Victoria Bug Zoo to help them look more authentic.

Some of the new emojis that will be released this fall include a slightly smiling face, two people hugging, a man in a veil, a woman in a tuxedo, a person feeding a baby, an anatomical heart, a bison, a beacer, a polar bear, a tamale, boba tea and a teapot.

Google designed emojis to work well with dark mode as well.
