A classical membrane model is developed for a dynamic wormhole. Its throat expands hyperbolically with an acceleration proportional to the surface energy density $\sigma$. The model leads to a negative bulk viscosity coefficient $\zeta = - 1/6 \pi$ on the throat, expressing the instability against perturbations (expansions or contractions).
