Gung hay fat choy

Gung hay fat choy. Or, literally "wishing you great happiness and prosperity" in this New Year of the Tiger

A white tiger shot in Singapore Zoo about 4 years ago. We do not have tigers in Hong Kong anymore.

Whilst this white fur is a natural occurrence - they are simply tigers that are born with white fur - this is a very rare genetic mutation. It occurs possibly in as few as 1 in 10,000 or less wild tiger births. ... Many tigers must be inbred multiple times to get the one perfect white tiger exhibitors like to market to the public.
