Crayfishes are capable of regenerating its limbs. The crayfish has a "breaking joint" near the base of each claw and leg which is used a safety measure. When grabbed by an enemy, it twitches a special muscle and the joint breaks so the crayfish can escape. A new limb will grow in its place, eventually regrowing to normal size.
