I mean, look at 𓆉 Gardner I2, and don't tell me it's not similar to the modern hieroglyphic 🐢 U+1F422 TURTLE. Appreciation of the animals has what has kept the civilisations stable and true. Like the turtles. Can you point to any example where society has fallen if they appreciated turtles so much that they dedicated a letter for them? (Or in case of the Unicode Age, twice?)
