Different colouring of Tigers
There are three other colour variants – white, golden and nearly stripeless snow white, that are now virtually non-existent in the wild due to the reduction of wild tiger populations, but continue in captive populations.
The white tiger has white fur and sepia-brown stripes. The golden tiger has a pale golden pelage with a blond tone and reddish-brown stripes.
The snow white tiger is a morph with extremely faint stripes and a pale reddish-brown ringed tail. Both snow white and golden tigers are homozygous for CORIN gene mutations.
A black tiger is a colour variant due to pseudo-melanism. They have thick stripes close together so that the background colour is barely visible between stripes.
