Of course not!NEVER cut off a animals tail!=====The tail can be amputated if necessary successfully. Accidents happen; cat fights, doors shutting. My cat fell victim to my blinds and got her tail caught in the string that operates them, circulation was lost and half the tail had to be removed because the nerves had died and the vertebrae was broken.
It got it's tail caught under a rocking chair rocker!
I believe that what happens is that the predator catches the lizard by the tail, and then the tail breaks off and the lizard gets away, leaving the enemy there in awe with a tail dangling from his mouth. :] I believe the tail is mostly dead skin cells, and it can be regrown in a short period of time.
That is very unlikely BUT if that were to happen I would stop as much of the blood flow as I could and take them to the vet.
Yes, cutting off a stingray's tail can be considered cruel as it can cause pain, distress, and potential harm to the animal. Stingrays use their tails for defense and mobility, so removing it can affect their ability to survive in their natural habitat. It is important to treat animals ethically and with respect.
if you mean a scorpion it is hard for the tail to fall off

Lizards can lose their tail and regrow it if captured by a predator.
its a gecko
It's tail can break off and it will grow back.
They get two close to the sun and some breaks off.
The tail. Not all lizards can do it - but certain species are able to shed their tail if caught - enabling them to escape. The tail grows back over time.

First off its tail shouldn't break and if it does it wont grow back!take it to the vet.
if they are being hunted and caught by the tail their tail will fall off and they will be able to escape. dont try this because if its tail falls off you will have to feed you leopard gecko more often because it stores all of its food in its tail.
Desire Caught by the Tail - album - was created in 1986.
Geckos drop their tail as a defense mechanism to escape from predators. This behavior is called autotomy, where the tail breaks off easily to distract the predator while the gecko makes its getaway.
