boa
Serpent or scarf
A boa is a large snake that kills prey by coiling around it and squeezing—a constrictor.
The term covers various species, most famously the boa constrictor of Central and South America.
A boa is also a long, fluffy scarf made of feathers or fur, worn draped around the neck and shoulders: She wore a pink feather boa to the party.
The garment takes its name from its snake-like shape and the way it wraps around the wearer.
