Diet of white tiger

White tigers are just like orange tigers and we are familiar with them. The differences between orange and white tigers are physics and color. Snow tigers also exist in the wild life and they have no strips on their bodies. To answer the question What White Tigers Eat? We are here to guide you regarding eating habits of white tigers. Basically white tigers are same breed with orange tigers and eating habits of both tigers are also same. White tigers also prey. This wild animal likes to eat wild boar and deer. However some of favorite food of white tigers include deer (barking deer, chital deer, swamp deer, hog deer, Rusa deer, Red deer, Sika deer), antelope, buffalo, farm livestock, sambar, young rhino, elephant calves, water buffalo, guar, wapiti, moose, peafowl, monkeys, civets, fish, frogs, crabs, lizards, pythons and vegetation and fruit such as grass and fruit.
Probably only 3 or 4 out of every 1000 tigers eat people and most of these are sick or wounded animals, that can no longer hunt large prey. Wild tigers are found mostly in India. Until the 1800’s many lived throughout most of the southern half of the continent. Tigers still live in some of these areas, but only a few are left. People have greatly reduced their number by hunting them and by clearing the forest in which they lived. Today wild life experts consider the tiger an endangered species. 
A white tiger eats the same as a "normal" tiger. Meat, and lots of it. They are carnivores and most if not all of the vegetation they get comes from the inside of the animals they prey on.
Tigers can live in almost any climate. They need only shade, water and prey. They are found in the hot rain forest of Malaya, the dark thorny woods of India, and the cold, snowy, spruce forest of Manchuria. They also live in oak woods, tall grassland, swamps, and marshes. Tiger prefers to be in shadows and seldom go into open country as Lions do.
