Mass extinctions occur for many reasons. Changes in the environment might make it impossible for the local life to survive, diesease or drought might strike, or there might be a natural disaster. These extinctions make good divisions in geologic time because they are easy to locate over a wide area and mark a definitive change in the Earth's systems.
