Why were tigers rampant in the ancient Central Plains, and were there really so many tigers?

Of course, there is no doubt about it! In ancient times, you don't need to think about what the living conditions were, and there is really no comparison compared to now! Sparsely populated, the natural environment has not destroyed the food, of course, there are not many tigers?

They also have no natural predators (although it is unknown whether there were any ancient or prehistoric beasts left at that time), and even natural disasters will not destroy them. At that time, human beings were just cold weapons, and the tiger's muscles were so strong, the skin was thick and hard, and it was difficult to hurt the tiger, not to mention that it was almost impossible to kill them, plus the tiger was larger than the adult, the running speed was extremely fast, the natural defense ability and killing ability were strong, and it was difficult for a group of people to get it. Under such a unique advantageous condition, the reproduction is fast and the vitality is strong, and you can't say that there are not many of them.

The main reason is that there are too many people, and the tiger place is crowded, and a tiger has at least one or two hundred kilometers of activity range. Now people are much more ruthless than tigers, and when it comes to holidays, the mountains are full of people.

There are a lot of them, and before the Song Dynasty, tigers lived in the plains, and only later did they go up to the mountains. In the legal records of the Tang Dynasty, all the trees on both sides of the official road were cut down in all parts of the south to prevent tigers from hiding and hurting people. It can be seen how many tigers there are...

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Feng Nu fought tigers, Wu Song fought tigers in the Song Dynasty, Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty fought tigers, Yang Zirong fought tigers before liberation, and after liberation, there were hunters and tigers in the newspapers.

It can be seen that there are a lot of tigers.

The tiger has a strong sense of territory, and there is usually only one tiger in several mountains. First of all, if anyone knows that there are tigers in some mountains and forests, they will not go up the mountain alone under any circumstances, and they are looking for death. Therefore, the ancients were very smart, and generally did not live in large ravines, but lived in places with convenient transportation and large populations, but this did not necessarily mean that tigers could not be encountered.

Moreover, in autumn and winter, the government will organize patrols to fight tigers and hunters to patrol the mountains, almost three times a month, because at this time, tigers are most likely to go down the mountain and hurt people. Fortunately, the population was small at that time, and there were many natural resources, so the conflict between man and tiger was not so intense. However, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, due to the large increase in population, people further cultivated the land, which led to a sharp increase in the number of tiger injuries.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the population increased dramatically, which led to the fact that all tigers had to be killed, which also led to the complete extinction of the South China tiger.

Hello, there can only be some.

In the past, there were Siberian tigers in Northeast China, Chinese tigers (South China tigers) in central and southern China, and Indochinese tigers and Bengal tigers in southwest China. These tigers are still distributed in China, but because they have been hunted, they are now very small, with only a dozen Siberian tigers in the wild, South China tigers only in zoos, and Bengal tigers and Indochinese tigers in the jungles of Yunnan Province.

Because Siberian tigers don't just live in northeastern China. In the vast expanse of Siberia, there are a large number of Siberian tigers (we call them Siberian tigers). Some of them will flow from the border side to the border side.

In this way, even if the wild Siberian tiger in the territory is extinct for a while, as long as the environment has not been completely destroyed, there can be a certain amount of natural recovery by relying on overseas supplementation.

But the South China tiger is different, because there are very few areas in the country where the South China tiger can live, and the passage between them has been cut off.

Even if there are small populations in the wild, the consequence of not being able to find a mating partner or inbreeding is bound to go extinct. The South China tigers raised in zoos are now bred by a very small number of South China tigers, which will inevitably lead to serious inbreeding and deterioration of reproductive function. Eventually, it can only go extinct.

In fact, from the investigation over the years, the wild South China tiger has been completely extinct or functionally extinct, and even if there are a few individuals in the wild, the end of their life will be the end of the reproduction of this species.

Everything has a beginning and an end.

The Siberian tiger is smaller than the South China tiger, and it is also good at hiding in the mountains and dense forests, like a fish burrowing into the sea, you don't want to find it in your life, and the South China tiger is larger, although the speed is also good, but the average hunter is ...... to see its huge figure(Bengal tigers and Sumatran tigers are also suffering.) ）

Siberian tigers, also known as Siberian tigers, are distributed in China, Russia and other regions, and are more numerous and widely distributed. The South China tiger is a tiger species endemic to China, and is only distributed in a small number in a few parts of southern China, not in other countries. Which one do you say is precious?

South China is warm, and tigers have a milder temperament. The Northeast is cold all year round, so tigers are fierce by nature. If it were you, what would you hunt?

The Siberian tiger is because Russia is advocating tiger protection, and China has not yet woken up and is advocating the killing of South China tigers in large numbers, and if it weren't for Russia, the Siberian tiger would be worse than the South China tiger, and there would not be a single one in China.

To put it simply: there are many people in South China and few people in Northeast China.

Fifteen years have passed, and the wild tiger has been completely lost for 40 years, and it should be gone. With a population of 1.4 billion, there are a lot of good achievements, but China's unique tiger can already be called a national treasure. Anyway, there are only 2,060 national treasure pandas, and 450 are bred in captivity.

However, only 70 tigers in China are bred in captivity and scattered throughout the country, and the wild is even extinct. Instead, India has conserved 4,500 Bengal-Indian tigers in the wild. Compared with the beginning of the conservation, it has increased by 4,000 heads, and countless more have been raised in captivity, and it has given land to the status of the Bengal-Indian tiger national beast.

What did we do? How to turn a blind eye!

No, there may be thousands of tigers, but they are very special like Siberian tigers, and there are very few South China tigers.

Locusts, every time I see a TV series, there is a ** report to the king, where there is a locust plague, and there is no harvest of grain particles.

In ancient times, the most common was the infestation of locusts, and people at that time did not know that locusts could also be eaten, and they did not know how to control locusts.

If locusts are also animals, then it is him, in ancient times, there would be frequent insect plagues, and then people began to have enough to eat.

In fact, it is estimated that the only locusts that have been flooded in China's history have been eaten, and in other words, what can be eaten has long been eaten, and it will not be said that there is a problem of flooding.

It should be a tiger, and there are often tigers in many deep mountains, and there are many incidents of tigers eating people.

The first thing that comes to mind is locusts, and then there are rats, because these two are easy to reproduce, and these two types of animals can be said to be very tenacious.

I think it's snakes, I think snakes are very common today, let alone ancient times.

I don't think so, after all, Chinese still eat a lot of things, what animals are more, then take them to eat.

In ancient China, the Ming Dynasty was plagued by locusts, which also caused the Ming Dynasty to experience a major turmoil.

Dinosaurs, because there were dinosaurs before.

I think it should be rats, after all, rats were everywhere and rats were easy to survive.
