The true albino has no pigmentation at all. Some forms are largely white (polar bears and baby seals, for example) but they aren't albinos.

Where do the white Bengal tigers get there colors from?

White Bengal get their colors from a recessive genetic "mutation" that makes them unable to survive in the wild because they stand out and can't camouflage to hunt. However, they are not albino - they are actually leucistic. While albino animals have lessened black or dark coloration and have red or pink eyes, leucistic animals have all lessened colors and blue eyes. There are many beautiful, fascinating leucistic animals other than Bengal tigers, such as white peacocks, that can be very interesting to look at as well.

What is leucistic?

Leucistic refers to a condition in animals characterized by a partial loss of pigmentation, resulting in lighter-colored skin, feathers, or fur, but not a complete absence of color. Unlike albinism, which involves a total lack of melanin, leucistic animals may still have some pigmentation in their eyes and other tissues. This condition can occur in various species, including birds, reptiles, and mammals. Leucism can affect an animal's camouflage and survival in the wild.
