Why is the Golden Tabby Tiger in danger of becoming extinct?

There is no such tiger species as the "golden tabby".The golden tabby tiger is actually a Bengal tiger with a colour variation caused by a recessive gene. White tigers, for example, are also Bengal tigers with a recessive gene, As far as we know, no "golden tabby" coloured Bengal tigers have ever appeared in the wild and have, so far, only occurred in captivity.
