No, a stingray is relatively unaffected by the loss of its spine because the spine is connected to the tail by only a small amount of connective tissue. Loss of a spine usually results in spine replacement within a short period. In fact, some stingray species replace their spines on an annual basis

I think yes, it can lose it. Why I think that? Because lizards lose THEIR tail, so why not stingrays? I think stingrays are cold-blooded and so are lizards, so.... MAYBE SOME kinds of cold-blooded animals MIGHT lose their tail. (?)
