People have found ways to protect themselves

by wearing masks on the back of their

heads.Tigers only attack from behind,so the
mask fools them.It seems like the person is
always facing them!another method used to
deter tigers is Scarecrows-which gives electric
shock so any tiger that touches the dummy
gets a mild shock.It helps teach tigers to stop
atrtacking people.Tigers don't like becoming
pets because they are wild.Even captive cubs
that have been raised by humans are not
domesticated.Trainers in a circus use whips or
chairs to scare the tigers into submission.
White tigers are not a separate subspecials of
tiger,they are not from cold,snowy climates-
they come from India. White tigers are a rare
form of Bengal tiger.They're regular tigers with
twhiskers and tails-they just happen to be
colored white White tigers actually range from
pure white to white with choclate brown or
black stripes.Many white tigers have blue
eyes,but some have amber or even greenish
eyes.White is a very,very unusual color for a
white tiger.Of the thousands of tigers in the
wild,only a few are white.There are many white
tigers in captivity,though-and almost all of
them are descended from a wild white Bengel
tiger named Mohan that was captured in India
in the 1950s.
Almost all of the captive white tigers in North
America today are descended from Mohan and
are higly inbred.Some white tigers have also
been mated with other tiger
subspecies,creating what are called hybrid
tigers.
