White Tiger Habitat - The Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas
by Gary LongWhite Tiger Habitat -
The Mirage Hotel
The open-air home of Siegfried & Roy's Royal White Tigers
is available for public viewing around the clock. Siegfried & Roy have dedicated
their lives to preserving these rare animals, and their efforts have helped save
them from total extinction.
After securing the offspring of a perfectly matched pair
of these beautiful animals bequested to this country in 1958 by the Maharaja of
Rewa, Siegfried & Roy established their own Royal White Tiger breeding line.
Unlike conventional tigers which have black and gold
markings, the white tiger is white with black stripes, pink paws and ice blue
eyes. The purest of these animals are snow white and have no stripes. There are
only a few dozen white tigers in the world, which makes them rarer than the
panda bear.
The Tiger Habitat contains many features designed to
enhance the comfort of the animals and provide spectacular viewing for guests.
The open air environment features a swimming pool with fountains and simulated
mountain terrain for the tigers' enjoyment and the public's entertainment. The
facility's white setting gives the animals a sense of security by allowing them
to blend into the background, and special slanted glass affords better viewing,
eliminates glare and helps control the temperature.
The Royal White Tigers are rotated continuously in and out
of the facility throughout the day. When not appearing in the Habitat, they
enjoy their own spacious living environment and periodic excursions into the
countryside.
