Gecko tails rip off along ‘dotted’ line
Gecko tails are held to their bodies via a weak adhesive force, and rip off on fracture lines when the lizards are threatened by predators.

Lizards do this. When I was a kid, a large lizard and a cat were doing battle in our neighborhood. The cat severely wounded the lizard, which got away, leaving its tail - wiggling, as a distraction. I picked it up and used it to harass my sister.
