The white tiger is an individual of the Bengal tiger with a congenital mutation (not considered a separate subspecies). The mutation leads to a completely white coloration - a tiger with black-brown stripes on white fur and blue eyes. This color is very rare among wild animals. The frequency of appearance of white tigers is 1 individual per 10 000 with normal color. Reports of the white tiger for many decades came from Assam, Bengal, Bihar and especially from the territory of the former indigenous principality of Reva. The first discovery of the white tiger in nature, however, is attributed to 1951, when one of the hunters took a white male tiger from the lair that he had found and then unsuccessfully tried to obtain from him the same progeny from the female with normal color, but then after all succeeded in creating a second generation of white tigers. Over time, the population has significantly expanded: all white tigers, which are now contained in captivity, are descendants of the same found individual and have a relationship with each other. Now in captivity contains about 130 white tigers, about 100 of them - in India. The last known white tiger in nature was shot in 1958. The view that white tigers are albinos is wrong - in fact, this coloration is caused by the presence of recessive genes (a real albino tiger would not have black bands). If both parents are heterozygous, that is, orange, but are carriers of genes, then the chance to get their offspring in the form of a white tiger is 25%. Parents, one of whom is a white tiger, and the other an orange heterozygote, has a similar chance to increase up to 50%. If one of the parents is white and the other is orange, but homozygous, the whole offspring will be orange, but the carriers of the gene. White tigers are usually smaller (from childhood) than ordinary Bengal tigers, and often, due to closely related crossings, [1] have various genetic defects, including strabismus, poor vision, clubfoot, curved spine and neck, problems with kidneys. Nevertheless, the claim that infant mortality among white tigers is extremely high does not really correspond to reality. White tigers are popular not only in zoos, where they are often attracted to everyone's attention and are therefore considered a valuable specimen, but also in popular culture: in particular, some musical groups dedicated songs to them. I want this breed of tigers to be protected and not killed! Thank you for attention
Iwould like to tell about karlsson, my favourite character from a famous book written by swedish author astrid lindgren. karlsson is a short, stout, overconfident man, who lives in a small house on the roof of an ordinary apartment building. karlsson has a button on his belly. when he presses this button, it activates a little propeller on his back. thanks to this he can fly. karlsson made friends with lillebror, a little boy who lived in one of the flats. his parents love him very much, however lillebror often feels lonely. karlsson and lillebror became best friends. we don't know how old karlsson is, but his jokes and games seem to be very funny for little children. karlsson is very imaginative. a lot of ideas cross his mind all the time. he knows how to entertain the little boy. karlsson is a real expert when it comes to playing a trick. despite all this, i would say that karlsson is a positive character. he supports lillebror, he is always there when the boy needs him, he listens to him and helps him a lot. я бы хотел рассказать о карлсоне – моем любимом герое из знаменитой книги, написанной шведской писательницей астрид линдгрен. карлсон – маленький, толстенький и самоуверенный человечек, который живет в небольшом домике на крыше обычного многоквартирного дома. у карлсона на животе есть кнопка. когда он нажимает на эту кнопку, у него на спине начинает работать маленький пропеллер. этому он может летать. карлсон подружился с малышом – маленьким мальчиком, который жил в одной из квартир. его родители любят его, однако малыш часто чувствует себя одиноким. карлсон и малыш стали лучшими друзьями. мы не знаем, сколько лет карлсону, но его шутки и игры кажутся смешными для маленьких детей. у карлсона богатое воображение. у него в голове всегда много идей. он знает, как развлечь маленького мальчика. когда дело доходит до проделок, карлсон – настоящий эксперт. несмотря на все это, я бы сказал, что карлсон положительный герой. он поддерживает малыша, он всегда рядом, когда мальчик нуждается в нем, он выслушивает его и во многом .
