Ambassador names Washington zoo’s first female kiwi chick

Kiwi are an endangered bird native to New Zealand.

To mark the historic hatching, keepers bestowed the honor of naming the chick upon a fellow ‘Kiwi’ - New Zealand Ambassador to the United States HE Roy Ferguson. 

Ambassador Ferguson named the chick Hiri (pronounced “HEE-ree”), which means “important and great” in Māori, New Zealand’s official indigenous language. 

This hatching is a significant milestone, not only for the zoo but also for kiwi populations worldwide.
