Talk:Golden tiger

message: Golden tigers tend to be rather bulky individuals compared to normally colored tigers and even white tigers. I don't a source to back it up, but I heard that they average over 500 pounds. — 71.190.81.70 (talk) 21:16, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Size data lacking 

message: The 30 cats figure seems rather low to me.  I work at a big cat rescue facility where we have 9 golden tabbies, and it seems unlikely to me that we have 1/3 of the world's supply.  The source for this figure seems to be the external link at the bottom of the page, , which doesn't indicate where its information comes from, or when it was last updated.  (The most recent date in the text is 2006, so at least since then.)  If anyone can shed light on this, I'd be glad to hear it.  Crysm (talk) 05:30, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  30 cats worldwide figure 

message: User:20.133.0.13 started this talk page by suggesting (back in 2005) that this article be moved from Golden tabby to Golden tabby tiger or Golden tiger. The current title is confusing because of its use for domestic cats. The tiger variety is known as Golden tiger, Golden tabby tiger and Strawberry tiger. I propose to move this page to Golden tiger as Google suggests it is the most common term. ~ Kimelea (talk) 21:29, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move to Golden tiger 

message: Suggest some kind of amending of article, as it baldly states initially they don't occur in the wild, then has a 'golden tigers in the wild' section, making the intro utterly false if that section's true.Laegjarn (talk) 06:04, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  'Not in the wild' 

message: The "In the wild" section (which lacks references) says both "The unusual color would provide these tigers with extra camouflage" and "Wild-born golden tigers might be disadvantaged as they are less well camouflaged than normal orange or red tigers." This is contradictory. It has apparently been this way since October 13, 2016, as evidenced in this post. 68.32.65.176 (talk) 03:14, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Contradiction in "In the wild" section 

message: I entirely reworked the article... one tedious step at a time. It was very disorganized and had almost no citations, and lots of original research. I read every reference. I located citations where there were none before. As the article morphed and I learned more on the topic, I reorganized the article to make more sense. The lede is now fully sourced. The section "Captive breeding lines" could use more citations; it seemed logical from everything I read, but I gave up on nitpicking it. 
The final section is actually a "List of" golden tigers (past and present). I decided not to make any judgment about the list or its entries but just made sure there was some sort of citation for each entry. I didn't get too picky about them being primary sources at this stage. Perhaps other editors would like to comment on whether or not there should even be a "List of" in this article. I'm sure readers would be happy to have such a list. I don't think there is any RS secondary source "list of golden tigers" on the internet that we could draw on.

thread_title:  Reworked article 

message: That photograph doesn't accurately portray the stark difference in colour between a Golden Tiger and a normal Tiger. Honestly, it just looks like an overexposed photo of a Bengal. Is there not a a photo in the public domain that has better lighting, or is a close up? Google "golden tiger", there are plenty of better photos to use as a reference for what one looks like in actuality. Tqger (talk) 03:57, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Photograph 

message: Removed the part about this being called a "strawberry tiger". This term is not present in the provided source. Also, I guess this is a misunderstanding as there is a golden tiger in a zoo named Strawberry, the pictures of which are widely circulated on the Internet. --DustWolf (talk) 18:33, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
