as of now,all white Bengals are in zoos.
White tigers are often poached primarily for their striking fur, which is highly sought after in the illegal wildlife trade. Additionally, various body parts are used in traditional medicine and as trophies. The rarity and unique appearance of white tigers can also drive demand among collectors and for display in private zoos. This illegal activity poses a significant threat to their already dwindling populations.
White Bengal tigers are not a separate subspecies; they are a result of a genetic mutation that causes a lack of pigment in their fur. The gene pool of white tigers is limited due to inbreeding practices to maintain their distinctive coloration, which can lead to health issues and reduced reproductive success. As a result, conservation efforts focus on maintaining genetic diversity and protecting wild tiger populations as a whole.
Male white tigers are simply referred to as "male white tigers." There is no specific name for them aside from their species and color designation.
a group of white tigers :)
White tigers do not have horns.
Bengal Tigers are from India and Bangladesh. So they would be poached in those areas.
white tigers have been poached for hundreds of years, first for meat then the skins became popular for clothes and rugs also the habitat is being dominated by humans.
Tigers and Wolves are a few of the main animals that get poached. ~ ~Sleenky
Elephants and Rhinos are poached for their Tusks and Horns because they contain ivory which is valuable. Tigers, Leopards and other Big Cats are poached for their Skin which is also valuable.
they used to be due to their skin. now they use it as revenge for killing humans...
I prefer them lightly breaded and fried in peanut oil. They are rather bland tasting when poached

Yes, the White Lion is endangered because they are getting poached by poachers.

Because they are white.
Yes. White tigers have a mutation in their genes that makes them white, and they are the offspring of siberian tigers and bengal tigers.
White Bengal tigers are the ONLY white tiger, white Siberian tigers do not exist. People just mistake white Bengals for siberians.
