A captive white tiger at the Singapore Zoo
The white tiger is a leucistic morph of the tiger, typically the Bengal tiger. White tigers have the typical black stripes of a tiger, but its coat is otherwise white or near-white, and it has blue eyes. Natural occurrences of this mutation are occasionally reported in the wild in India. The vast majority of white tigers are a result of intentional inbreeding for human entertainment, a practice which is banned by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums for institutions wishing to be accredited.
