Discovery NotesThe soil was collected at 4:00 p.m. It was collected in a former barnyard that hadn't been tended to in 5 years. The soil was moist and loose with some grass roots in it. The soil was collected at 30mm below the surface. The air temperature was 57 degrees F. It was collected on a misty day, with a light drizzle.
Naming NotesWolfpack was the nickname of my high school athletic mascot. My roommate Nic Forster recommended it to me when we were sitting in our room and I asked him.

Plaque NotesI originally had two different types of phages when performing my assays, one small and one large. I decided to isolate and continue with the larger plaque phage. It leaves a large, clear plaque with only a tiny dot of bacteria left in the middle. There is no halo and the plaque is about 2mm in diameter and width . The plaques were virtually all uniform, with all of them being almost all clear and very large.
