"white lions have slightly yellowish fur as albino lions are pure white and have red eyes"

Not exactly true. White lions can be completely devoid of hair pigmentation just as albinos and not have a yellowish coat. There are as many as 4 types of white lion. At a minimum of two. As for the eye color of albino lions; just as other species can be classified as albinos due to lack of the enzyme that produces melanin in skin, hair or the eye, (any combination of the three can occur). an animal can be an albino lion and have blue grey, purple or red eyes.
