White tiger & cubs video « Thread Started on Apr 17, 2009, 2:31am »
These white tiger cubs were born in Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo on October 4th 2008. They were given the Indian names Kali (boy) and Durga (girl). They have brighr blue eyes, pink noses and chocolaty brown stripes.
White tigers originate from Bengal tigers, but they are not albino or a seperate subspecies. They are born to tigers that carry the unusual gene needed for the unique coloring. The Bengal tiger is native to the jungles of India.

Lovely to watch them playing like that, excellent, well done kedi, and in such difficult conditions with having to cope with bright sun and glass reflections!
