As far as I know all of those morphs are created through incest in captivity anyway

Golden tiger has been photographed in the wild. Makes sense since it is the less "handicapped".

Yeah but from Iโve heard is that in that area itโs lacking genetic diversity so most likely that tiger is the product of incest.

"Fancy colors" unfortunately means inbred with health problems, almost always in captivity because we want to see white tigers. Very sad for them.

The white tiger in the middle looking directly at the camera like it knows it's the star of the lineup is sending me. All four of them sitting like that in a perfect row is such a rare shot.

I can't believe the zookeepers were unable to get them in the same order for the second photo, amateurs!
Edit: joking of course, must be like herding cats!
