White lions in the wild are an extremely rare occurrence, and until recently were only known to occur in the Timbavati area of the Greater Kruger – with recent sightings in the N’wanetsi area.
They are white from tail to head, not as a result of albinism, but rather leucism, where the pelt is white but the eyes and skin are pigmented. In order for a cub to be born as a white lion, both parents need to carry the recessive white gene and the cub has to inherit this gene from each parent. If a cub receives a dominant “tawny” gene, it’s pelt will be tawny, so a litter can comprise both white and tawny cubs.
