The Maori feather cloak is called a "Kahu huruhuru" in Maori language. It is a traditional garment worn by Maori people in New Zealand and is made from feathers of native birds such as the kiwi and the kereru.
The kiwi bird gets its name from the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand, who named it after the sound of its distinctive call. The bird's name, "kiwi", is onomatopoeic, reflecting the shrill "kee-wee" noise it makes.
