Mudslides often happen after a mountain slope has had its trees and vegetation removed. This can happen from deforestation, or even from forest fires.
This means that the soil doesn't have the anchors from the strong root systems of plants and trees. It also loses the canopy coverage of the trees and so is very vulnerable to erosion and weathering from storms and rainfall.
Strong cloudbursts and extreme rainfall can then wash the soil downhill as a mudslide, which then gathers strength as it gets bigger and bigger, bringing rocks and other debris with it.
Mudslides can also be triggered by earthquakes, if there is enough water in the soil, and by volcanic eruption.
Mudslides occur when the viscosity of saturated ground on a slope reaches a point where it is lowered by the force of gravity.

mudslides are mud and happen when it rains alot, landslides can be caused by lots of rain but are usually caused by earthquakes
yes why wouldn't it? There was a landslide on jan.4 2012 and about 150 people were missing
