This is Tango, a Snow Lynx Bengal with a rare and special coat color. The snow coloration comes from a recessive gene, making it uncommon among Bengal cats. One of the most striking features of Snow Bengals is their blue eyes—a trait exclusive to this color. Other Bengal coat variations do not have blue eyes, adding to the uniqueness of this genetic trait.
The Snow Bengal color is the result of breeding the Siamese colorpoint gene with Bengals, selectively refined over generations to achieve this look. These cats share signature features like white fur and blue eyes. However, through careful selection, breeders have minimized the dark facial and ear markings typical of Siamese cats, creating a cleaner appearance while preserving the rich contrast of the Bengal's pattern.
