Yes, unfortunately.
White Tigers are for the most part, bred in the United States. Though they are mostly inbred.
No, white tigers don't live in the wild. They are inbred for zoo's, circuses, or to be sold in the black market for pets.
It never has. A white tiger is just a severely inbred Bengal tiger. White tigers haven't even their own sub species.
White Bengal Tigers are Bengal tigers that are white with gray stripes. Most species of tigers have white individuals, but the most common are Bengals. White tigers once existed in the wild, but the last wild white tiger was seen in 1958. The genes that cause white tigers have vanished from wild populations as the have shrunken vastly inrecent decades.However, a number of white tigers exist in captivity, the descendants of wild white tigers that were captured. In order for a tiger to be white, it has to have two copies of the gene for whiteness. This means that in order to be sure of getting a white tiger, breeders must breed two white tigers. This means that many breeders inbreed their white tigers in order to get more of the valuable white ones. This is much easier that trying to find unrelated white tigers to breed, but causes the animals to be inbred; the tigers have unusually large numbers of double-recessive genes, and little genetic variety. These white tigers are less healthy than non-inbred tigers and can have diseases, deformities, and decreased fertility.However, there is nothing inherently unhealthy about tigers with the white gene; it does occur naturally. White tigers are unhealthy only because humans interfere with tiger breeding to produce more white tigers than would naturally occur. Some non-inbred white tigers do exist, as well as inbred orange tigers with health problems.Because of the excessive inbreeding practiced on white tigers, some groups oppose the breeding of any white tigers. The opposition is usually grounds that it is unhealthy for them to exist, that they are bred at the expense of breeding healthy orange tigers, and that selective breeding for the white genes is detrimental to the genetic diversity of all captive tigers. Maintaining genetic diversity amount captive tigers is considered important because wild populations are declining and could vanish.
An extremely rare genetic condition of the Bengal tiger, occurring only one in ten thousand births. The white tigers in captivity were bred from a hand ful of white tigers, and are very inbred, being afflicted with many defects, such as crossed eyes, cleft palate, and kinks in their tails.

There is only about 200 worldwide. They are a mutation, there has never been a documented wild birth of a white tiger. All white tigers have been bred and raised from the same white tiger found in the 1950's, all inbred to keep the white gene alive.
There is no such thing as a "Purebreed Werewolf".
White tigers are so important because they are an endangered species. That means that they are on the brink of extinction and if we don't care about them, they will die out. They're incredibly rare and are beautiful animals to watch. The white tigers are currently being inbreed, but have failed to because of serious birth defects.
They're not natural. Nearly all white lions today are inbred descendents of a small group of lions living in Kruger National Park. The facts about white tigers apply to white lions too. A manga by Osamu Tezuka written in 1950 featured a white lion as the main character,
depends where the zoo is the white color is caused by a mutated gen, it is extremeley rare in the wild (1 every 10/15000 births), because its white color they can't survive the ones you see in the zoo are bred (read: INbred) in captivity
