White tigers aren't considered a separate species, they're simply individuals of the same species of tigers, with a rare, but natural mutation that gives them a different colour scheme. As members of the same species, they aren't any more, or less endangered than the normally coloured version.

But both tigers and elephants are all under pressure due to habitat loss and poaching.

White elephants aren't a separate species, they're simply Asian/Indian elephants with less-than-average pigmentation in their skin, making them a patchy, blotchy pink instead of the normal grayish-brown. As they aren't a specie, they can't be endangered as a specie. They've always been rare. With an overall reduction of the number of elephants, naturally, fewer of those too are born. But there's always a few ones around.
