it was late when i was having a night bath after a long tiring day... when i grabbed the soap dish, i was surprised to find a baby lizard hiding underneath it. the creature was threatened and jump on our empty bath tub! i saw its tail wiggling! i thought I’ve hurt that lizard and cut its tail! poor little creature... lost its tail because of my carelessness. i felt guilty seeing its cut tail wiggling and turning round and round as if it was looking for its body!!! it's weird that i felt accountable about it... i didn't know i have sympathy for creatures that don't bother me that much.
anyway, when my mom arrived, i mentioned to her about that. and she told me that i might not have cut the lizard's tail at all! she said that it's an animal instinct of lizards to disconnect its tail to get away from its predator! and that they can still grow back its tail! (maybe some of you already knew about this)!… and i was amaze of this animal/biology fact! (yes, I’m outdated!) hehe...
oh my! i felt like i have missed all those interesting facts like this...because i was/need to be consumed by those tiresome "facts", "theories", blah...blahs....etc.,etc. of some matters I have to to deal with-- which i can't relate to… and don't even care!
Unsolicited lesson: naisip ko tuloy: mabuti pa ang butiki, kahit hayop, interesting din naman pala at may napupulot akong aral... eh ang ibang tao sa paligid-ligid (na parang hayop umasta at parang walang pinag-aralan! hmmpp!!)
anyway...so i searched on the internet http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa4128/is_200503/ai_n12412576) and found out more about these interesting stuffs: 
Fact#1. Yes, Lizard can disconnect their tails from their bodies when a predator threatens Their tails are built with spaces between the bones where they can break away. It takes a lot of time and energy for a lizard to grow its tail back, but it's better than being eaten. Fact #2. A salamander can actually regrow arms, tails, toes, hearts, and parts of their eyes when they lose them.!!!
Fact #3. Lobsters can release entire claws in the hopes of satisfying a hungry predator. Don't worry, they grow back.
Fact# 4. Sea stars can regrow missing arms. Some sea star arms can even grow missing bodies!
Fact# 5. Octopuses can regrow tentacles that have been bitten off by predators. its tentacles have so many nerves that they can continue to crawl around after they become separated from the octopus's body. This distracts and confuses a predator so that the octopus can get away.
P.S.
Zhandra can also grow back her torn halo and broken wings… (in time….. ) ;p
