Details
The golden tiger is a golden variant of the Bengal tiger. It is golden with black stripes. It is extinct in the wild and is even rarer than the snow tiger. It is a rare animal in the world.
In some legends, stories and blessings, there are often sayings such as "Golden Tiger Happy New Year" and "Golden Tiger Welcomes Wealth", and the golden tiger has become a mythical beast that can bring good luck to people. In fact, golden tigers do exist in reality. Among 10,000 Bengal tigers, there may be only one that carries the "golden tiger gene". The reason for this rare golden color is due to recessive genes, which can only be found in "captive" tigers. The exact number of golden tigers in the world is unknown, but it is confirmed to exist in more than 30 parks around the world. Slightly larger than the original tiger, with very soft fur, they are relatives of the orange tiger.
Wild golden tigers are extinct, and the golden tigers we can see are all artificially raised, so they are less wild and more docile.
Protect wild animals and stop eating game.
