There are about 500 Siberian tigers currently surviving in the wild, but the effective population accounts for genetic diversity. BBC says that the tiger has a very low diversity, which means that any disease or rare genetic disorders will probably be passed on to the next generation. A more diverse genetic population would increase its chance of survival

and would be able to "cancel out" diseases and disorders with healthy genes.

The rare white tigers are a color morph of the Bengal, not Siberian tiger. However, in captivity some white Bengals have been mated to siberians, producing white crossbreeds. Many white tigers can be seen in captivity, none seen in wild for many years.

How many snow tigers are there left?

The term "snow tiger" is used to refer to a couple of different sub-species of tigers. Often it is used to refer to the Bengal tigers that have a gene mutation giving them a white coloration. Sometimes these white Bengal tigers are also called the "snow white tiger". This coloration in the Bengal is very rare, especially in the wild. But perhaps, more frequently, the only tiger that lives in snowy country, the Siberian, is referred to the "snow tiger" or "Siberian Snow tiger". These Siberian tigers are believed to number only around 600 in the wild today."Snow tigers" are of the Siberian tiger species and are estimated at between 500 to 600 in the wild.
