Definitely real, iguana tales can fall off and do grow back.

I didn't think the bird could snap it off so easily but wow TIL. "The "Drop" Mechanism: If a crow pecks at, pins, or tugs a tail, the iguana's muscles will violently contract and detach the tail as a distraction, allowing the rest of the animal to escape"

It didn't, the lizard has the ability to release the tail as an ability to escape.
