Tigers, Tigers, Tigers Everywhere! :D

a couple of days back i log in to 9gag (some tumblr, with a hell of fun), then i came across a post about a tiger, so i decided to write a post about it too!

i remember when i was a kid (around 8-10 years old), that i asked my mom i wanted a pet tiger. hilarious right? and my mom would be all like "tigers can't live with human, it'll eat us dear", and i was like "awwww...why can't we just get the new born baby? we'll teach it to eat vegetarian, then they grow up, we'll send it to the zoo :(". then my mom replied, "even so we can do that, i know you won't take care of it, you just know how to play with it but all the cleaning poops and feeding it will be my job." then i replied "no! i'll take good care of it! i promise! huwaaaaaaaa....! i want a tiger! >.<". Then my mom just leave me alone with my fantasy~ at that time, it didn't occur to me how much the tiger cub will cost. and surely it didn't came across to me the cub will be so sad to be separated with it's mom or how it'll react living from a different environment. O.O but to be honest, i still want a tiger as a pet! huwaaaaaa...! what's not to like about them, they're just an over-sized grown cat. :3 and a cute one too~ so i done some researched about tiger and i found this~ read and enjoy! :D

blue tiger

a blue tiger or maltese tiger is a semi-hypothetical coloration morph of a tiger. it has bluish fur with dark grey stripes. blue tiger possessed two different pair of recessive allele- the non-agouti (black) and the dilute which combine to produce solid blue-gray color.

bengal tiger

the bengal tiger's coat is yellow to light orange with stripes ranging from dark brown to black. but the belly ant the interior parts are white and the tail is white with black rings.

white tiger

white tiger are the recessive mutant of the bengal tiger. compare to a normal bengal tiger, white tiger tends to be larger. however, it is unclear whether the recessive white gene came from any bengal tiger or originated from the their siberian ancestor.














just like the white tiger, this golden tiger is a color form and not a separate species. only 30 of these rare tiger in the world. the golden tiger's white coat and golden patches make it stand out from the normal. golden tiger tend to be larger and due to the effect of the gene on the hair shaft, have softer fur than their orange relatives.
