One particulartly interesting defense mechanism for a large number of snake species is to regurgitate food. they only do this after eating of course. The reason behind this is widely believed to be that if an animal of prey is attempting to eat a snake, and the food is regurgitated, the prey animal will eat the regurgitated food and allow the snake to escape.

Then you have the ever famous, watch me break my tail off and make it wiggle trick used by a wide variety of lizard species.

hope this helps.
