There are 9 subspecies of tigers of which 3 are now extinct. The difference between the different subspecies is reflected in their coloring, size, stripe pattern and geography. As is common with most tigers in captivity, none of our tigers are purebred. We list what we feel is their dominate subspecies on our webpage and on their name plates on the cages.
