White tigers are almost non-existent in the wild due to their rarity and disadvantage in natural habitats. Their pale coats make them more visible to prey and predators, reducing their chances of survival.
Historically, white tigers were occasionally spotted in the forests of India, but habitat loss and hunting have all but eliminated their presence. Today, efforts to protect Bengal tigers indirectly help conserve the genetic lineage that produces white tigers.
Education and awareness campaigns focus on the need to protect all tiger subspecies and ensure their habitats are preserved. The story of the white tiger serves as a reminder of the delicate balance of nature and the consequences of human activity.
