Nails sometimes get caught in things and are ripped out in the process. Other times carpet will twist around base of nail and it pinches off eventually.

Tails can get caught on things as well. They will regrow but not in the original form.

The claw should eventually regrow but not quickly. My tegu took over a year to regrow a lost claw. The tail will probably not regrow.
