* White tigers are an extremely rare product of recessive genes, and the very few individuals encountered in the wild have all inhabited humid tropical environments.  Snowstalker (and thus Tigatron) may not represent a proper tiger as modern [[humans]] would envision, but, rather, another big tiger-like cat that in the subsequent four million years has gone extinct. If indeed Snowstalker is part of a contemporary species of tigers, then it is also possible that she would have been the product of inbreeding, since mating a cub with its mother can also produce white tigers.
