White Tiger Tattoos

White tiger tattoos offer a unique spin on a popular design. The tiger has long been considered a symbol of power, especially in Asian cultures, but white tigers have even greater mystique. Very rare in the wild because their coloring makes them easily visible to their would-be prey, these "ghost tigers" are especially prized. You can use them in a tattoo to symbolize your own uniqueness or as a testimony to your own determination to survive.
