Discovery NotesPhage sample was found deep in the woods inside a decomposed wooden log that had turned into soil. The soil had the outline and shape of a wooden log.
Naming NotesThe "Log" part of the name is from the location where the phage was found: a decomposed log of wood that had turned into soil. This phage was somewhat troublesome due to its high concentration, almost like a 394-foot lizard that breathes radioactive fire. I decided to call it Logzilla.
