Can Siberian tigers and white tigers mate?

Answer:
Sure they can, they are both members of the cat family and can easily interbreed but the chances of this happening in nature are slim given that White Tigers are Bengal Tigers which live in Northern Asia and the Siberian Tiger lives in Siberia and other parts of Russia.
