idgeridoo (or didjeridu) it is sometimes described as a natural wooden trumpet or "drone pipe". Musicologists classify it as an aerophone.

Your thinking of the traditional aborignal instrument called the didgeridoo.
A didgeridoo is usually cylindrical or conical in shape and can measure anywhere from 1 to 2 meters in length, with most instruments measuring around 1.2 meters. Instruments shorter or longer than this are less common. Generally, the longer the instrument, the lower the pitch or key of the instrument. Keys from D to F⯠are the preferred pitch of traditional Aboriginal players.

Do you mean Didgeridoos?, they're different shapes and sizes of musical "pipes"- we went to Australia and bought some-they usually have aboriginal patterns drawn on them.
