I've never seen one, I doubt very much you will find one. As for price I dread to think with adult tigers sometimes fetching £50 plus a pair.

Very. Odds are you'll never even see an albino-bodied tiger. There are a few albino-shelled tigers in captivity so you'll probably see pictures at some point. There's photos of an albino-bodied tiger in Achatschnecken by Andreas Leiss - it's the only one I've ever seen What they'd go for... I can't imagine there's an upper limit if there were any for sale. They're on a lot of wishlists.

Oooh I'd love to see one too, and I bet it would go for well over £100 considering the crazy prices normal Tigers were sold for last year. However one of the things I love about Tigers are their velvety-looking skin which is enhanced by their colour. I would think you would lose some of that with an albino.

Hmm albino bodied tigers and rocking horse poo seem to go together. I'd love to see one but yep prices would be stupid if anyone were to have and sell one.

those two are off Karren I brought them gosh must of been three years ago now they where my first margies i won them off ebay and i was so chuffed with them still am. The babies are like the adults i'm not sure you would call them true albino because they have dark eye stalks? they are more of a peachy colour then white but then i guess that could be all the sweet pototoes.
