South China tigers have been widely distributed in Guangdong, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangxi and other places. In the 20s of the 50th century, there were thousands of tigers in South China in China, and even the so-called "tiger plague" was formed in some areas.

With the rapid expansion of population and the rapid development of productivity in the past hundred years, the conflict between people and tigers has intensified. The survival of the national tiger is by no means "God blessed", behind this is the unremitting efforts of animal protection workers for decades.
