May 18, 2011Why do animals have tails ?
I always wonder, why do they have them? Apart from animals who use it for locomotion, as fish, and for hanging, as monkeys, some animals seem to do nothing with their tails.
I've read once that lizards are caught by the predators from their tails, so they get rid of it and leave it with the predator and run away.
Here tails are not an advatage.

Mike[/quote] But they were caught from their tails. Then why do they grow it again? I mean that lizards' tails are the thing that they are caught from. "a disadvantage"ReagirResponder
