Yellowstone Supervolcano Making Strange Rumblings

Steam rises from hot springs in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, in a 2002 file photo.

Supervolcanoes can sleep for centuries or millennia before producing incredibly massive eruptions that can drop ash across an entire continent.

One of the largest supervolcanoes in the world lies beneath Yellowstone National Park, which spans parts of Wyoming, Montana and Idaho.

Thanks.

Mexican wolves, I'd guess. Now I know why they transported them here in New Mexico.

Actually, they do come from across the border. It was the Canadian border though.

Within a few years, the Yellowstone elk herd will be gone.

In a heard of 100, there used to be 80 calves. Shortly there will be no adults because the wolves are eating the calves.

There are about 4 times as many wolves as they said would be there as a maximum. They are still a "protected species" so nobody can try to control them.

Hmmmm! Sounds like their using the wolves to discourage grazing to protect the endangered weeds.

This story is from 2002...uh, that was a few days ago, and they usually don't report on Al Gore's rumblings.

OMG!
I could have been KILLED, and never known it, because this wasn't posted in a timely manner!

INEXCUSABLE!

The story is from 3-14-2007. The photo was from 2002 as noted in this thread if is is so obvious as to the problem, why use a file photo over 5 years old.

Hmmmm! Sounds like their using the wolves to discourage grazing to protect the endangered weeds.

The whole thing was started because they didn't like hunters carrying rifles in Teton National Park. (That is where the hunting takes place.) The hunting is to thin the herd because there wasn't enough winter grazing to carry it through the winter.

All the hunters have to take a special hunter safety class, and be sworn in as deputy rangers so they can carry firearms in the park.

Even the Federal Wildlife Service (started by Clinton) do not like hunters, so they chase the elk away from the hunters.

Putting wolves in there was intended by them to reduce the elk so that hunting wouldn't be "necessary".

They then got the Grizzly bears a protected species, and between them they are wiping out the elk.

It is apparent they are succeeding because there are only a tenth as many hunting licenses now as compared to 20 years ago. Just a few more years and there will be none.

I have an Idea : lets throw all our tree-huggers into the volcano as a sacrifice to Mother Gaia to satisfy her wrath....

Won't work. They aren't virgins. Not even sure if they qualify as 'human'.

Wouldn't want to tick Mother Gaia off by offering an impure sacrifice; it may exacerbate matters.

Too late; I can't be placated now, except by gobs & gobs of money.

Between the heart attack, apoplexy, and stroke, there should be at least 7 figures.

Even the spaz-attack is worth a few grand, plus punitive damages.

I was wrong about the story, I think. But the picture was from 2002. Better watch our though! Old Faithful has got a friend over there, and they say she's ready to blow! So watch out!

Interesting. Maybe Al Bore and his cronies should check it out and tell us how to stop it.

I live fairly close too. Please e-mail if it blows so I can drive away from the blast.
