C-u M-x python3 -c 'print("\N{TURTLE}", end = "")' RET :)

Though I only see this character as an over-wide box containing the
numeric code 01F422.

Usually I go to the web and search for the character code. Python
unicodedata module does not seem to help if one doesn't know or guess
the exact name, but if one does, unicodedata.lookup("TURTLE") works.

Aha! http://unicode-search.net/unicode-namesearch.pl?term=TURTLE

python3 -c 'print("\N{KANGXI RADICAL TURTLE}")'

That one shows as a glyph for me, both in Emacs in a terminal and in
Firefox.
