The tiger appearing in the photos taken by Zhou Zhenglong in October 2007 was in fact a photograph of the tiger cut out of a poster and planted in the jungle. Using his faked photos, in October of 2007 Zhou claimed to have documented a wild South China Tiger, long thought to be extinct in the wild. He received 20,000 yuan from the local forestry department for his "discovery". To make his story more credible, Zhou also photographed fake "tiger's footprint" he created with a wooden model of tiger's claw.
