The decline of the chough population in Northern Ireland has been attributed to the loss of their habitat due to changing farming practices. The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD) introduced the Chough Option into specific areas within the Antrim Coast, Glens and Rathlin Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA) in 1997 with the aim of maintaining and restoring suitable chough feeding habitat.
