Animals use their tales for several purposes. Some animals use their tails for balance. Some animals use their tales to hold onto things: sea horses, monkeys, etc. Fish and beavers use their tales to propel them in water. Some lizards can use their tales as distractions when predators attack them (like when you grab a lizard and its tail comes out, and the tail continues moving).
