Samara, a Bengal tiger, was born June 16, 1994 at the Nashville Zoo. Her father was white and her mother was orange. This makes Samara heterozygous, meaning she carries the rare white gene. Unlike her brother, she still plays in Tiger Splash making her our oldest Tiger Splash star. Tigers have 30 teeth and boast the longest canines of any meat-eating land animal.
