| Discovery Notes | The soil sample was taken from a raised butterfly garden at University of the Sciences. This garden was raised about 3 feet from the ground and had multiple plants and insects, such as caterpillars, roaches, ants, earthworms, etc. The soil was slightly moist and was in a no foot traffic area. Cluster identified following DOGEMS via PCR with cluster-specific primers. |
| Naming Notes | Our little baby has some very sad looking heads which appear to be exploded. Which is why there is the boom the cracka and then the pop for the explosion sounds. |
