People have found ways to protect themselves by wearing masks on the back of theirheads. Tigers only attack from behind, so the mask fools them. It seems like the personis always facing them! Another method used to deter tigers is Scarecrows- which giveselectric shock so any tiger that touches the dummy gets a mild shock. It helps teachtigers to stop attacking 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 acircus use whips or chairs to scare the tigers into submission.

White tigers are not a separate subspecies of tiger, they are not from cold, snowyclimates-they come from India. White tigers are a rare form of Bengal tiger. They'reregular tigers with whiskers and tails-they just happen to be colored white. White tigersactually range from pure white to white with chocolate brown or black stripes. Manywhite tigers have blue eyes, but some have amber or even greenish eyes. White is avery, very unusual color for a wild tiger. Of the thousands of tigers in the wild, only a feware white. There are many white tigers in captivity, though-and almost all of them aredescended from a wild white Bengal tiger named Mohan that was captured in India inthe 1950s.

Almost all of the captive white tigers in North America today are descended from Mohanand are highly inbred. Some white tigers have also been mated with other tiger

subspecies, creating what are called hybrid tigers.
