| Discovery Notes | On a crisp January afternoon, after a gueling class, Chunkie called to us from a bag of compost that she was trapped in. There was snow everywhere, but the compost bag was exposed. We freed her. |
| Naming Notes | Our top agar was continually so, so chunky- it looked like unsolidified jello. That's where her name came from! |
