Animals Leaving Yellowstone? Earthquakes and Seismic Activity

[dank]

BitChicksHusband had a basset hound when he was young that could predict earthquakes.  The dog would make really strange noises right before one hit.  Don't underestimate the ability of animals to predict things we can't.  Who knows, the Bison might be smarter than scientists.

What your dog would predict is called the "P Wave", which arrives faster than the "S Wave"  that does all the damage.  We can detect these P Waves as well, but we don't have much time between the warning and the shaking.

Man evolved to be the smartest creatures on this planet.  Bison are idiots (i.e. dank) in comparison.

Man is the smartest creature on this planet?  If you scale the length of time earth has been here down to 46 years, we have been here for 4 hours and destroyed 50% of forests within one minute since the industrial revolution.

Real smart.  Creating nuclear bombs and housing enough to destroy the world 40 times.  Real smart.  Committing genocide amongst our own race.  Real smart.

Destroying earth is real smart nowadays I suppose.

So what?   Man is still the smartest creature on the planet, with some obvious exceptions.

Wow - I worked there for six months.  And Bison don't run like that ... pretty much for anything.

I assume you are referring to the video of the bison trotting up one side of the road.'

The other videos I found, they were pretty normal animal behavior.

So what's with the right hand trot video?  Fake video?  Bison sensing something?  It did to me look like somewhat unusual animal behavior, and I've been around cattle goats and other herd animals...

I need you to get me a couple dozen bison to test these theories out.  Not sure what kind of results I'll be able to provide you of course.  I do have a good amount of barbecue sauce ready.

If Yellowstone erupts bye bye US and A?

Hopefully Bitcoin is worth enough to get on a plane for an "extended" vacation with my family ASAP if this happens.

If yellowstone erupts, goodbye human race.  No god is going to save us.

yeah, no bitcoin needs power, if that were to happen, at least loud enough, we'd go back to medieval times

Even in the shelter all gonna die? With the technology no one will survive?

Obviously there are varying degrees of eruption, but if it were to give us everything it had, it would put us into an ice age (no sunlight due to dust) for a decade, like the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs.

Earthquakes and Seismic Activity
I have to remember to check for Earthquake danger before planning a vacation.

FYI:
There is recent TV coverage(s) on this story.

If Yellowstone erupts the way some scientists predict it will be bad mostly for the USA but expect black rain of hot ash all the way to Paris and London for months. Remember how bad for air traffic that eruption from Iceland was? And that was a regular vulcano...

Geopolitically a Yellowstone eruption would the best thing for Russia, the Balkans, Mongolia, China, India, etc for the next 1000 years.

South America could be safe maybe?

Maybe all of the "global warming" fanatics would finally shut up for a while though.

Great....Another danger to worry about?
Hopefully the animals are not trying to tell us something too serious.

We just need to figure out the one place on the planet that has no risk of volcano eruptions or other natural disasters, is free from psycho dictators, where we can use bitcoin freely and live in peace and harmony.  If you have any ideas let me know.
