A Kakapo is a flightless night parrot: http://www.kakapo.net/en/. So leaping
Kakapo does make a kind of sense. "kaka" is the Maori word for parrot. Po
must be Maori for night. The mountain kaka is carnivorous. It has been known
to attack and kill lambs and pigs.

Kakapo is also a combination of kaka and pooh. -Which are words loaded with
other meanings... In American English (at least), "kaka" is childish slang
for shit as is "poo".
