| Discovery Notes | A four-inch hole in an active flower bed was dug, and moist, dark soil was pulled out. There were worms and roly-polys in the soil as well. (They were removed). |
| Naming Notes | Timbaa is a mix of two of my cat's names, Timon and Pumbaa. Timon and Pumbaa are the sweetest boys, the easiest to pick up and cuddle and the nicest to approach. Seeing as my phage came from the very first direct assay I felt like if it was a cat, it would be comparable to Timon and Pumbaa. |
