White Lion

The White lion is Dalaborn's national animal, is very common around the country, this specie of lion has a rare color mutation of the Kruger subspecies of lion (Panthera leo krugeri).

White lions are not a separate subspecies but at Dalaborn they are very common. White lions were first discovered by europeans when they arrived to the coast of Dalaborn,they were first hunted because of their skin and because they hunted domestic sheeps, in place of wolves, so they were hunted almost to the brink of extinction until 1920, when the white lion was finally protected by law, and it became Dalaborn's national animal. Today the population is growing very slowly, but at least there are around 700,000 white lions in wild, and 1,000 in zoos.

Because the gene is recessive and is masked by the normal tawny color, white lion's population grows very slowly,and they are endemic of Dalaborn, maybe because of this they can join with baselina lions, and their children will be white, not like real world white lions. Nobody knows where did they come from or if they evolved alone from an unknown lion at Dalaborn.
