Usually a tag team like this isn’t really fair, but somehow I think that Mama Tiger can handle herself with these two. :) It’s nice to see tiger breeding programs in action, as tigers are on the critically endangered list. Unfortunately, these beautiful animals are the white bengal variant, which is not found naturally in the wild and is a product of the white tiger breeding trade. These beautiful and innocent tiger cubs were not bred by the zoo; rather, the mother tiger was rescued from a breeder and she was already pregnant when the zoo rescued her. In fact, the American Zoological Association prohibits its members from acquiring and breeding white tigers because the rate of genetic defects is high and the white tiger trade engages in terribly unethical practices.

I don’t think it is a coincidence that the eyes of a white bengal tiger are blue, as they always seem to be filled with sadness… As you probably know, I take a lot of photos of white bengal tigers. But I always have mixed feelings when I upload them… Yes, the animals are stunning, but the white tiger isn’t something that is found in nature, and is a product of humans breeding them for the “white tiger trade.” All white tigers can be traced back to a single tiger born with a genetic mutation in the 1950s that created a white coat and blue eyes. This tiger’s “owner” immediately saw dollar signs and started to breed him to produce other white tigers. Naturally, this required a great deal of inbreeding, which has led to many white tigers having all sorts of genetic problems. Not only this, but about 3/4 of the cubs born in the white tiger trade are actually orange. These “undesirables” are either killed or sold to game farms where brave hunters pay to shoot and kill these captive animals. Because of these horribly unethical practices, the American Zoological Association prohibits its members from purchasing white tigers from such breeders and from breeding them due to the high rate of genetic defects. All of the white tigers I have photographed have been those that were fortunate enough to have been rescued from the breeding trade (including the shot Tag Team ). Most white tigers aren’t so lucky. You can help put an end to this trade by not going to circuses and animal parks that purchase white tigers from breeders. When the demand ceases, this practice will cease as well. This shot was taken with a 50mm macro lens and isn’t a crop… Yes, I was that close!! 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to Big Cat Rescue.

Ah Zebras, my favourites, i could never get sick of them and was always most excited when spotting them in Africa, they beat any other wild animals for me.

I drew this a few years back when I was first experimenting with pen and watercolours. / I’ve always liked the drawing but not known what to do with it, so I’ve kept it simple and added it to the bubble!

Most people see strength and power when they look at the begal tiger. However, I see vulnerability for this critically endangered species. We have lost three subspecies of tiger in the past 50 years due to hunting: the Balinese tiger, the Javan tiger, and the Caspian tiger. The south China tiger is extinct in the wild, as the last known tiger of this subspecies was shot and killed in 1994. The remaining tigers are dependent upon for their survival the very same species that is causing their numbers to decline from illegal poaching: humans. I’d say that’s a pretty vulnerable position in which to find oneself. / . / Click to see all of my tiger photos. / . / 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to Big Cat Rescue.

Obviously I have a great love for these critically endangered bengal tigers, as they are amongst my favorite photographic subjects. It always amazes me how such large and powerful creatures can also be so gentle and affectionate. I could sit and watch Mama Tiger and her cubs for hours and never get tired of it… The white tiger isn’t something that is found in nature, and is a product of humans breeding them for the “white tiger trade.” All white tigers can be traced back to a single tiger born with a genetic mutation in the 1950s that created a white coat and blue eyes.

This is from a series I produced a few years ago in my homemade, primitive, yet functional darkroom. Sadly, my enlarger now lives in the bottom of a cupboard :(

This is a gorgeous white and critically endangered bengal tiger. I love the softness of her expression, and the gentleness in her eyes. It’s so sad that we let such magnificent creatures come so close to extinction… What a loss it would be for this planet. All species of tiger are on the critically endangered list… Please support tiger conservation efforts, or we may lose these beautiful creatures. / . / Click to see all of my tiger photos. / . 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to Big Cat Rescue.

White tiger at the aquarium in Houston. This is why I do not like seeing animals in zoos or cages. Wouldn’t you be bored if you were a jungle animal and you were put in a cage like this? They are beautiful, but I would prefer they were free. / ________________________________________________________ Please visit my professional site: – Charles Dobbs Photography and receive a 10% discount off my RedBubble Pricing when you order RedBubble Products directly from me!
