-Yes -White tigers are a color morph of any subspecies of tiger whose fur is almost white, though it is not a separate subspecies. -I fany Georgina Miners
The white tiger is an extremely rare color morph of the Bengal tiger, and all tiger subspecies are endangered.
This is a trait of the Bengal tiger. White tigers are rare, even among Bengals, but nearly unknown among other subspecies of tiger. There are, however, some Siberian tiger /Bengal tiger white hybrids.
The white tiger is not a separate subspecies, they are a color variant of the Bengal tiger. As such, they have always been very rare.
There is only one, and it is not a species unto itself. The white tiger is only a rare color of the Bengal tiger.
Yes. The "white tiger" is a Bengal tiger with a white coat. The coat color is determined by a recessive gene that is specific to the Bengal subspecies.
White tigers are not a separate type of subspecies of tiger they are simply genetically mutated tigers, so I guess never would be the best answer.
The white tiger started from humans breeding tigers in captivity. To make the tiger thrive they would have to establish a small population of white tigers to release in the wild because a tiger with and orange coloring will not mate with a white tiger.
As white tigers are only a rare color morph of the Bengal tiger, protect that subspecies and there will always be a chance of more white tigers.
Siberian tigers are the top predator in their environment, and, as such, every animal in the ecosystem is affected by them. And, there are no white Siberian tigers. This rare color morph is confined to the Bengal tiger subspecies.
White tigers are just a genetically flawed version of the Bengal tiger, so either can win, since they are both the same subspecies.
No, not purebred Siberians. The white trait, which also produces the "golden tabby" tiger, is a Bengal tiger trait, but may appear in hybrids between the two tiger subspecies.
