Well, thank goodness these aren't the white tigers with the other recessive traits expressed, or these comments wouldn't be quite as positive.

I wrote a post about how inbred white tigers in captivity are (and how you usually don't see the deformed or sick ones) and it has attracted many of the same style of comments. It's actually a bit disconcerting to have comm enters acknowledge that these animals are unnatural and it's cruel to keep breeding them, but say they love white tigers so much that they don't really care.

I love this Picture, and all those that are showing their true colors here, are just fleas on a mangy dog...

Beautiful Work!

It's sad to know that people still argue and fight about breeding tigers in protected habitats, when the issue is not about inbreeding, it's about trying to save a species. Perhaps, if the same energy were given to supporting advances in cloning for breeding, money for wildlife preserves and as many people who hate on tigers in captivity quit bothering those trying to save them and hated on the predators - we wouldn't have this problem. Thank you for this picture. It allows me to give it to my son's class, and hopefully help encourage the next generation to grow up with a love of tigers in their hearts and try and continue the fight to protect them.

Helooo every body. First- brittany yer a spazzo with a problem. second- this pic is cool, but white tigewrs should not be bred, and they r. the problem with that is that the tigers that r not white r killed or given to private owners hoo cant take care of a tiger(nobody can- its true so dont even:)

Omg Brittany you are so cruel i hope Karma attacts you!

Tigers are the best animal going.Who ever said that tigers should be dead should get their head tested.
Love the picture.

who took that pic? the tigers would probly kill me!

white tiger's are all very buitiful animals and hope that one day me and a white tiger will come face to face.....

There is no such thing as a natural white tiger. They are inbreeded to get the white fur. All white tigers are cross eyed, sickly and unable to live in the wild. They are often completly dependent, thats why so many trainers for shows want them. Any one owning or breeding them should be locked up forever!
