I know they are a sub species of the bengal, but can they have their own offspring?

Actually White tigers are not natural, they are caused when incest occurs, between daughters and fathers, or brothers and sisters, ect. And many, about 88% of the offspring dies due to birth deformaties and such. And some, not many, but some live there lives horidly deformed. And white tigers are, as some would say, 'slower' that regular tigers. And because of this, Magicians find it an awesome opprotunity to train and use them. There so much slower and easier to train and handle that way. But if two did have offspring, the survival rate may be low.

In the wild they have ZERO, because they do not live in the wild.
White tigers are a man created species that are stuck in a horrid genetic rut. Man is a greedy creature and this animal suffers because of it.
If what was best was done for the animal in captivity they would have zero as well so the species could vanish off the planet and be a rest.
Sadly like I said, man is greedy and there are irresponsible breeders out there that will continue to put white tigers last. As far as numbers, they tend to have small litters of two to three at times I have seen as many as six.
