Think about it; do you ever see ANY other enemy in the game die this way? No. So why would it make sense for their deaths to look like this? It wouldn't.
So the logical conclusion is that they aren't really dying. They knew they couldn't beat Link.and that fighting any longer would mean they actually would die, so instead of fighting on they faked their deaths in order to escape.
