Yes, albino tigers are rare. They are not a separate species but rather a genetic variation of the Bengal tiger, characterized by their white fur and blue eyes due to a lack of the pigment pheomelanin. This condition is extremely uncommon in the wild, making sightings of albino tigers very rare. Additionally, breeding practices in captivity to produce albino tigers can lead to health issues and ethical concerns.
