Yellowstone Volcano is possibly erupting according to several reports that cited the mass exodus of bison and elk as a clear sign of the impending natural disaster; however, authorities are now saying that the mass exodus of the animals from the active volcano does not mean anything since it is just a natural occurrence.

According to Reuters, Yellowstone National Park has assured its guests and the general public Thursday that the super-volcano near the park is not erupting anytime soon.

The announcement was made just after an alarming video showing the mass exodus of bison and elk from the volcano has spread widely online.

The said video has become viral because it came after an earthquake in the park occurred early this week.

However, officials of the Yellowstone Volcano Park said that the animals are actually galloping down a paved road that leads deeper into the park.

"It was a spring-like day and they were frisky. Contrary to online reports, it's a natural occurrence and not the end of the world," Amy Bartlett, a spokeswoman for the park, said.

Geologists said that the Yellowstone volcano has not erupted in 650,000 years, so it is very unlikely that will erupt soon.

"Given the life span of the average human, we don't really have anything to worry about," St. Thomas University geologist Jenni McDermott said.

A 4.8 magnitude struck early Sunday near the Norris Geyser Basin northwest of Yellowstone, which spans 3,472 square miles of Wyoming, Montana and Idaho. Although the quake did not lead to any documented injuries or damages, it was regarded as the largest to rattle the area since a 4.8 earthquake struck in February 1980.

Despite the efforts of Yellowstone officials and government geologists to calm the senses of the local residents and guests, many continue to fear the possible eruption of the super-volcano.
