Yellowstone has a approx. 650,000 year-old cycle, and so the last major eruption was about 650,000 years ago. Therefore, the next eruption is long overdue and a major volcanic eruption is expected to occur in this century. It may be late 21st century (2070+), mid-21st century (2040+) or early 21st century (i.e. now or in the next two decades). Basically, Yellowstone will erupt that is a guarantee. Anyone guessing December 21, 2012?
December 21, 2012
We are actually 20,000 years over-due for in to have erupted. It could happen any time.
yes it would be active but rarely errupt but it would still be active
when there were no wolves in yellowstone park yellowstone park had to much elks so when the wolves arrived again the wolves killed all the elks

they errupt
Inactive volcanoes are unlikely to errupt,however there is no guarantee that they won't errupt . Also called dormant volcanoes.
Yes eventually Yellowstone is going to errupt again. It is thought to go off every 600,000 years and it has been 640,000 years since the last erruption. If it does errupt it will kill almost everyone, because it is a super volcano. Hot magma from the volcano will kill people near it, if that doesn't kill you, beathing in the volcanic ash which is made of silica (what glass is made of) will shred your lungs, and if you survive those two things ash will block out sunlight for years making it a lot like a nuclear winter... it will be very cold and there will be little to no food.
