A white tiger is a tiger with a genetic condition that nearly
eliminates pigment in the normally orange fur, though they
still have stripes.
Another genetic condition also makes the stripes of the tiger
very pale; white tigers of this type are called snowwhite or
"pure white".
Compared to orange tigers without the white gene, white
tigers tend to be larger both at birth and at full adult size.
All the white tigers are Bengal tigers.
White tiger is very rare and it is known only in zoos.
