Tail will grow back, but shorter than it was before. Lizards around my house (Skinks, Calotes, Geckos) regularly lose part of their tail, in case of a e.g. Spine-tailed Gecko the tail that grows back is shorter and has no spines....

tail will grow back? The other day the Park Ranger showed me a one eyed lizard. It must have been caught by some predator. The other eye was totally blown up and face was bloody. it was going about in a matter of fact way. I felt very sad.
