    Was this guy white? If so he's a Bengal tiger. Despite the name, that really sounds like they ought to be white, there are no substantiated incidences of white Siberian tigers in the wild and no white Siberian tigers have been born in captivity. It is thought that the white gene mutation may not be present in them. In b+w it's a little hard to tell if he's just light. Posted 9 years ago, modified 9 years ago

      No, this isn't a white tiger, he's definitely a Siberian. Sorry for the confusion! Posted 9 years ago, modified 9 years ago

        No worries - I thought it might be just the b+w processing making his orange fur look light. Nice looking tiger. Posted 9 years ago
