Both tigers are white, but Albino tigers will not have stripes on their tails. If you shave a white tiger's and an albino tiger's tail, the white tiger's tail will have stripes on the skin, while the albino tiger does not. An Albino tiger also will have pink skin, and their nose and lips will be pink too. A white tiger has white and black coloured fur and is a certain species. An Albino tiger is not a breed (can happen to any breed )but has no colour except for white and pink. This is because it is lacking in skin pigment because it does not have a certain gene. This can be passed down to it's cubs who could either turn out to be normal tigers or Albino tigers.

You can get Albino Horses, but they are very rare. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There has never been a genetically verified albino horse. The albino gene does not occur in horses. There are two colors that appear albino. One is Cremello, which is caused by two copies of the gene that makes a horse palomino or buckskin. They have pink skin and blue eyes. Cremello are common in Quarter Horses and Tennessee Walking horses. The other is white. The horse is born white, unlike a gray horse that is born any other color and turns white with time. They have pink skin and can have blue or brown eyes. They are usually only seen in Thoroughbreds. Unlike true albinism, both cremellos and white horses are verifiable and reproducible genetic colors. Though both colors are called "albino" by some people, neither are true albinos. you can get an Albino horse if you get lucky. i saw one once and didn't sell
