WHITE LION

WHITE LION

"They're not albino—here's why the big cats can sometimes be a very pale brown."

Here are some facts I summarize from wikipedia...      
     The White Lion is the result of the rare mutations that occur in the Kruger Lion (Panthera leo krugeri) found in some wilds in South Africa and in zoos around the world.
     The White Lion is a subspecies of the lion himself, and has been revered in Timbavati, South Africa, for centuries. Although appearing in 1938. New in the 1970s, White Lion began to get public attention after Chris McBride wrote a book called "The White Lions of Timbavati".

       In 2009, when it first appeared the idea of introducing the White Lion to the wild, many people were not sure this lion would be able to survive there. The reason is that the white color possessed by this Lion makes it unable to camouflage with nature, so it will be difficult to target prey. That is why, most of the White Lion population is currently in the Zoo.

       However, some White Lions from the Global White Lion Protection Trust (GWLPT) have started being introduced to the wild. The lions were already able to hunt and breed in the wild without human intervention. And now the White Lion in South Africa, is being bred exclusively to proficient hunting.

       The White Lion is not an albino. The white color they have is precisely because of the recessive genes they have that inhibit the development of color genes. This gene is also what has produced the White Tiger.

If you want to see White Lion you can visit this zoo:
