What 🦫 means
Most people use 🦫 in a light, friendly way. It shows up in posts about wildlife, rivers and dams, and in jokes about being "busy as a beaver" when someone is working nonstop. Because the beaver is the national animal of Canada, it often appears next to 🇨🇦 in Canadian posts. Sports fans of teams called the Beavers use it too. The word "beaver" is also a well-known crude slang term for female genitals, so in some flirty or rude messages the emoji may carry that meaning. In most chats it is simply a cute animal with no hidden message.
In texting
Usually it means someone is working hard, building something, or just sharing a cute animal. It can also be a playful nod to buck teeth.
From a girl or a guy
It is not usually a romantic signal. Most of the time it is a funny animal or a "hard at work" joke, though in a clearly flirty chat it may be a crude pun.
