An Opilione with a Missing Leg

with one leg missing this little spider got around quite well .... Nature adapts (or so I thought).
But Robert Buatois who is such an expert on all things creeping tells me that this is an Opilione who at times leaves a leg behind to keep predators busy with it while he is hunting himself.
Thank you, Robert !!!!
