They're ALBINOS. Technically, they don't "get their colors" at all. Albinism is a LACK of pigment.

White tigers inherit their unique coloration from a recessive gene that causes them to lack the pigment called pheomelanin, which gives normal tigers their orange color. The white coat color is a result of a genetic mutation that causes the tiger to be born with a light fur pigmentation.
