Best Answer

Bengal tigers are usually red-orange on their back and flanks, white on the belly and face, with dark brown or black stripes. Some Bengals are white with brown stripes.

All of the famed "White Tigers" are descended from white Bengals from Rewa District, India. There are no white Siberian tigers, as is often thought.
