Like with all limbs on almost any creature, the nerves are still active once the limb has been removed from the body. In the example that a bird snatches a Crested gecko by the tail, they "drop" the tail and as the tail continues to wiggle around, the crested gecko is able to escape into some brush, while the predator is enjoying a nice tasty tail.
