Is Ngorongoro Crater active?

Is Ngorongoro Crater Active? The Ngorongoro crater is one of the 7 wonders of Africa and also the largest Crater Lake in the world. The crater covers an area of about 3,202 square kilometers and it’s the largest Crater Lake in the world. The crater is about 610 meters deep. Most of the animals in the conservation area are around the crater as they use this crater to get water. •        This crater was formed by the volcanic forces. There was a large volcanic eruption that occurred to form the crater. The crater later collapsed on its self. The formation of this crater is believed to have happened about two million years ago. The Crater is an extinct volcano and therefore it’s not expected to have any eruption anytime in the near future.
