There's a bunch of new animals, including an otter, sloth, and service dog.

There are some new food items, like falafel and a waffle ...

There are also new emoji representing people with disabilities, including an ear with a hearing aid ...

... a mechanical arm and leg ...

... and emoji like a person with a probing cane or a person in a motorized wheelchair. Those emoji come in the form of gender-neutral people, too.

There are a couple new hearts ...

... and some random new emoji like a yo-yo or an ice cube.
