This is a video I made after my leopard gecko dropped her tail. The slide show reveals the regeneration process the tail goes thru before fully recovering.
Tail dropping is a defense mechanism called autotomy. They are designed to do this, with special connective tissue in the tail that creates a "weak spot" where the tail breaks off readily. They will drop their tail if threatened, scared or if their tail is grabbed. If a gecko drops their tail the blood vessels to the tail will constrict and very little blood loss occurs. The dropped tail will wiggle and twitch on the ground after. This tail loss distracts the predator, allowing the gecko to get away while the predator is left holding just a tail. This was my first time experiencing a gecko dropping it's tail and regenerating. I recorded the regeneration to share with people in the Facebook group "Show Off Your Reptiles" and also because the regrowth was pretty neat. I own 8 geckos plus 2 baby's that came from the female in this video. I was pretty terrified when it happened, and it's definitely been a learning experience! Why she did it? Honestly I do not know. Buts this is a 100% natural process.
I WAS NOT present at the time the tail was dropped so I DO NOT KNOW why it happened, but I must have walked in right after it happened because the tail was still twitching. She was also housed alone in a 20 gallon tank so I can rule out being bullied. My only explanation as to why this happened was she somehow spooked herself (I've heard of Leos dropping their tails when seeing their reflection) or maybe she got herself stuck behind her hide rock, wiggled out and then dropped the tail?
NO I DID NOT HARM THIS GECKO IN ANY WAY! NO, I DID NOT CUT HER TAIL OFF, anyone with eyes can see that her tail was not cut... a cut would have been clean and smooth, and obviously you can see how the 2 parts fit together like a puzzle piece.. again, I wasn't even present for the tail drop. This video was meant to be educational and informative.
Once the tail is lost, although it does grow back, it wont ever look normal or the way it was to begin with.
At day 65 the tail is completely regenerated. She is a Tremper albino so her tail will remain pink for the remainder of her life, the previous color will not come back. The texture will also be different from the original tail it's much smoother and softer and doesn't have the ridges in it like the original tail did. If she wasn't an albino some of the color would have come back but regardless, the regenerated tail will never resemble the original. It's usually a different color, a different shape, and/or a different size. Her tail will always look the way it is in the last photo.
Just so you know, any comments referring to the regenerated tail resembled dog parts will not make it past approval so please don't waste your time..

"What Should You Do if Your Gecko Drops Their Tail?
Usually geckos deal with tail loss well but there are a few things that you can do to ensure the whole process of tail loss and regrowing a new tail goes smoothly:
* Use paper towels for substrate after your gecko drops their tail. Loose substrates (bedding) can get into the wound from where the tail was attached and lead to infections. Switching the substrate to paper towels at least until the tail is regrown can help keep the tail clean. Change the paper towels often to continue to keep things clean.
*Isolate a gecko with tail loss from other geckos. Other geckos may bully a gecko that has dropped their tail even if they always live with them.
*Watch the tail stump for signs of infection and consult your exotics vet if there is any swelling, redness, or discharge at the site of the tail loss.
*Evaluate your environmental temperatures and humidity to make sure the enclosure in which your gecko lives is ideal. Tail loss and regrowth is stressful to your gecko and you want to make sure conditions are ideal and not contributing to their stress. Additionally, an improper environment can be a source of stress that could contribute to tail loss in the first place.
*Make sure your gecko is eating well. You can increase up the amount of food you normally feed since the tail loss is stressful and your gecko will deplete their fat storage. However, make sure crickets (or other prey items) not eaten within 15 minutes are removed from the tank otherwise the prey may try to nibble on your gecko's tail site.
Your gecko should be just fine without much intervention from you. You typically don't have to do anything other than keep the environment clean when your gecko drops his tail." http://exoticpets.about.com/od/geckos...
