Albino tigers, often referred to as white tigers, are not a separate subspecies but rather a genetic variation of the Bengal tiger. They became increasingly endangered in the mid-20th century due to habitat loss, poaching, and the practice of inbreeding to produce white tigers for zoos and entertainment. By the 1990s, their population declined significantly, leading to heightened conservation efforts. Today, while some white tigers exist in captivity, they are still considered endangered due to the overall decline of their natural habitats and the complexities of their breeding.

Tigers ARE still endangered.
Albino tigers typically reside in the wild in the forests and grasslands of India and Southeast Asia.
Tigers become endangered primarily due to habitat loss, poaching for their fur and body parts, and human-wildlife conflict. These threats have significantly reduced their population and pushed them to the brink of extinction. Conservation efforts are essential to protect and preserve wild tiger populations.
