Yellowstone has an area of 8983 km², making it immediately one of the largest national parks in the United States. The average elevation in the park is 2440 metres. Most of the park consists of forest in Wyoming. The park is home to many animal species, including bison, deer, several species of bear, coyotes and wolves.
Below Yellowstone is a volcanic hotspot. The super volcano beneath the park erupts at a major rate on average every 600,000 years.
The park has about 10,000 hot springs and more than 200 geysers.
