Description
From 1891 till 1922 white tigers were shot in Poona (now 'Pune'), Upper Assam, Orissa, Bilaspur and the erstwhile Cooch Behar - the then princely state of West Bengal. In March 1889 one white tiger was shot in Upper Assam. In fact the "Boga-Bagh" tea estate in Upper Assam is so-called because of the two white tigers that were fond there at the beginning of the last century.
This white tiger was born on 6, May 1989 at Peshwe Park.
He was later moved to the Katraj Park in Pune, where there is more space to roam about.
