Like all tigers, the South China tiger consumes large herbivores that live in the local habitat. These include deer and wild pigs. There are also some antelope native to the home range of the South China tiger, and they also hunt water buffalo.

Tigers also take elephant and rhinoceros calves, as well as small animals such as monkeys and pea fowl (commonly called peacocks). Domestic animals such as horses are also occasionally hunted by tigers.
