    (Hippophae rhamnoides),[5] rose hips, and domesticated

    crops such as apples, grapes and pears where available.[34]

    It has been observed eating flowers of Crocus vernus

    albiflorus, including the pistils, perhaps as a source of

    carotenoids.[35] The chough will readily supplement its

    winter diet with food provided by tourist activities in

    mountain regions, including ski resorts, refuse dumps andpicnic areas. Where additional food is available, winter

    flocks are larger and contain a high proportion of im-

    mature birds. The young birds principally frequent the

    sites with the greatest food availability, such as refuse

    dumps.[36] Both chough species will hide food in cracks

    and fissures, concealing the cache with a few pebbles.[37]

    This bird always forages in groups, which are larger in

    winter than summer, and have constant composition in

    each season. Where food resources are restricted, adults

    dominate young birds, and males outrank females.[28]

    Foraging areas change altitudinally through the year, de-

    pending on climatic factors, food availability and foodquality. During the breeding season, birds remain above

    the tree line, although they may use food provided by

    tourists at refuges and picnic areas.[34]

    Movement to lower levels begins after the first snow-

    falls, and feeding by day is mainly in or near valley bot-

    toms when the snow cover deepens, although the birds

    return to the mountains to roost. In March and April the

    choughs frequent villages at valley tops or forage in snow-

    free patches prior to their return to the high meadows.[34]

    Feeding trips may cover 20 km (12 mi) distance and

    1,600 m (5,200 ft) in altitude. In the Alps, the devel-

    opment of skiing above 3,000 m (9,800 ft) has enabledmore birds to remain at high levels in winter.[13]

    Where their ranges overlap, the two chough species may

    feed together in the summer, although there is only lim-

    ited competition for food. An Italian study showed that

    the vegetable part of the winter diet for the red-billed

    chough was almost exclusivelyGageabulbs dug from the

    ground, whilst the Alpine chough took berries and hips.

    In June, red-billed choughs fed mainly on caterpillars

    whereas Alpine choughs atecrane fly pupae. Later in the

    summer, the Alpine chough consumed large numbers of

    grasshoppers, while the red-billed chough added cranefly

    pupae, fly larvae and beetles to its diet.[25] In the easternHimalayas in November, Alpine choughs occur mainly in

    juniperforests where they feed onjuniper berries, differ-

    ing ecologically from the red-billed choughs in the same

    region and at the same time of year, which feed by dig-

    ging in the soil of terraced pastures of villages.[38]

    4.3 Natural threats

    Predators of the choughs include the peregrine falcon,

    golden eagleandEurasian eagle-owl, while thecommon

    raven will take nestlings.[39][40][41][42] Alpine choughshave been observed diving at a Tibetanred fox. It seems

    likely that this "mobbing" behaviour may be play activ-

    ity to give practice for when genuine defensive measures

    may be needed to protect eggs or young.[43]

    The Alpine chough is a host of the widespread bird

    fleaCeratophyllus vagabunda, two specialist chough fleas

    Frontopsylla frontalisand F. laetus,[44] acestodeChoan-

    otaenia pirinica,

    [45]

    and various species ofchewing liceinthe generaBrueelia,MenacanthusandPhilopterus.[46]

    5 Status

    In theAlps, Innsbruck, Austria

    The Alpine chough has an extensive though sometimes

    fragmented range, estimated at 110 million square kilo-

    metres (0.43.8 million sq mi), and a large population,

    including an estimated 260,000 to 620,000 individuals in

    Europe. The Corsican population has been estimated to

    comprise about 2,500 birds.[47] Over its range as a whole,

    the species is not believed to approach the thresholds for

    the global population decline criteria of the IUCN Red

    List (i.e., declining more than 30% in ten years or three

    generations), and is therefore evaluated as Least Con-

    cern.[1]

    At the greatest extent of the last glacial period around

    18,000 years ago, southern Europe was characterised by

    cold open habitats, and the Alpine chough was found as

    far as south as southern Italy, well outside its current

    range.[48] Some of these peripheral prehistoric popula-

    tions persisted until recently, only to disappear within

    the last couple of centuries. In thePolish Tatra Moun-

    tains, where a population had survived since the glacial

    period, it was not found as a breeding bird after the 19th

    century.[49] In Bulgaria, the number of breeding sites fell

    from 77 between 1950 and 1981 to just 14 in the 1996

    to 2006 period, and the number of pairs in the remain-

    ing colonies were much smaller. The decline was thought

    to be due to the loss of former open grasslands which

    had reverted to scrubby vegetation once extensive cattle

    grazing ceased.[50] Foraging habitat can also be lost to hu-man activities such as the construction of ski resorts and

    other tourist development on former alpine meadows.[51]

    Populations of choughs are stable or increasing in areas

    where traditional pastoral or other low intensity agricul-

    ture persists, but are declining or have become locally

    extinct where intensive farming methods have been in-

    troduced, such asBrittany, England, south-west Portugal

    and mainland Scotland.[52]

    Choughs can be locally threatened by the accumulation of

    pesticidesandheavy metalsin the mountain soils, heavy

    rain, shooting and other human disturbances,[50] but a

    longer-term threat comes from global warming, which

    would cause the species preferred Alpine climate zone

    to shift to higher, more restricted areas, or locally to dis-

    appear entirely.[53] Fossils of both chough species were

    found in the mountains of theCanary Islands. The local

    extinction of the Alpine chough and the reduced range

    of red-billed chough in the islands may have been due to

    climate change or human activity.[54]
