There are less than 10 Amur Tigers in North Korea and the
Bali Tiger has been extinct since the 1940's. Other Tiger species

Most tigers are tawny brown in color with dark stripes
and whitish stomachs. However, a few wild tigers have been
seen in unusual colors including all white and all black.

There are a species of tigers called white tigers. They are a mutation of
the Bengal species and have dark brown or reddish
brown stripes on a white ground-color.

Melanistic or black tigers have tawny, yellow or white
stripes on a black ground color. The existence of black
tigers without stripes has been reported but their has
been no specimens or photographs.
