Nope. White tigers and white lions are different breeds of large cats. Just like regular lions and tigers are different, and look different (male lions have manes, tigers have stripes for instance), the white versions of each are also different.

No, actually there is no such thing as white Bengal tigers. Bengal tigers are orange with black stripes, and Siberian Tigers(white tigers striped in black). Siberian tigers are the same as White tigers.

White tigers are Bengals, normally. They have a genetic defect that makes them white. White tigers can appear at anytime in a Bengal tiger litter. They are not a seperate subspecies.
