They are called the white tiger because a specific gene they contain that makes their fur white. This gene also causes the wrong side of their brain to be wired. all of the amazing creatures are cross eyed and many mentally impaired!

Rather than affect the entire skin, it only affects the portions that would be tiger orange, making the tiger's markings monochromatic.The tigers are very rare, and normally produced by the excessive inbreeding of small tiger populations in a secluded region.*The so-called "white Siberian tigers" are actually crossbreeds of Siberian tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) with white Bengals.
