Answer: Kaziranga National Park
Notes: A rare golden tiger, also called a golden tabby tiger, was recently spotted in Kaziranga National Park, Assam. It is not a separate subspecies but a colour variant of the Bengal tiger. Only four golden tigers are known to exist in the wild, all in Kaziranga. The colour is due to a mutation in the wideband gene, which increases the reddish-yellow pigment called pheomelanin. Both tiger parents must carry this mutated gene for the golden colour to appear. The colour itself is harmless, but it may result from inbreeding, which can cause genetic weaknesses.
