The white tiger is an animal that can be 3 meters long approximately and the weight could reach about 180 to 285 kilograms. This tiger is from the family of the Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) and the Siberian tiger (Panthera tigris altaica). They live in the southeast of Asia and in the center and south of India. They prefer to live in places with a lot of vegetation and water, like jungles, forests, and similar places. White tigers mainly eat meat, especially the one from animals such as deers, water buffalos, goats and wild pigs. If this kind of food is not available, they will eat alternatives like insects, fishes, monkeys, birds and even young elephants.
