The giant tapir (Tapirus augustus) is an extinct species of tapir that lived in southern China, with reports also suggesting it also lived in Java and Vietnam. Evidence suggests that the species first appeared in the Early Pleistocene and possibly survived until the early Holocene.

It was larger on average than modern tapirs, estimations range from 2.1 metres (6.9 ft) long and 0.9 metres (3.0 ft) tall at the shoulders to 3.5 metres (11 ft) long, and 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) metres tall at the shoulders. It may have weighed up to 500 kilograms (1,100 lb). The species was also placed in its own genus of Megatapirus, however, it is now conventionally placed within Tapirus
