    This is probably an example of natural evolution/selection where tigers that had slowly evolved more orange in their fur naturally, were able to feed more. This in turn meant the orange triat in their genes was passed on more frequently and became more dominant in the population.

    In a sense it was probably a “random” mutation, but when it became useful and effective it was passed down quicker.
