from wiki - White tigers are individual specimens of the ordinary tiger (Panthera tigris), with a genetic condition that causes paler colouration of the normally orange fur (they still have black stripes). Contrary to popular belief, white tigers are not albinos; true albino tigers would have no stripes. The stripeless white tigers known today only have very pale stripes. There is, in fact, no evidence of true albinisms in modern tigers.
The highlight of my recent trip to Indonesia was a trip to Taman Safari, near Jakarta...
The picture above is of a Sumatran Tiger, who you could have your photo taken with...but he was a bit moody so most people stayed away....
FEROCIOUS felines Tschuna and Daseep have helped make history at Dudley Zoo.
The two female tigers arrived in the Black Country, having been transferred all the way from Wuppertal Zoo, in Germany.
Fifteen-month-old Amur tiger Tschuna and 14-month-old Daseep, a Sumatran, were transported into the big cat enclosure by crane in a manoeuvre that involved more than a dozen senior keeping staff.
They were the first double entry into the enclosure in the zoo’s 75-year history and took almost a year of negotiations between keepers across Europe.
Zoo chief executive Peter Suddock said: “We are over the moon with the new girls, they are beautiful. It is wonderful to see them, and hopefully within the next year we will have a male to carry on our breeding programme.”

Please help identify.
I found this beetle along with other bronzed tiger beetles at the beach. This one looked slightly different. It's bands in the humeral and middle regions were connected along the base.
Maybe Hairy Necked? (I'd love for someone to tell me it's a puritan, but I don't think it is...)

They tossed hard hats with some sort of foodstuff (presumably raw meat) in bags into the tiger exhibit.
