In some parts of the world like Japan, tree felling is a ceremonial act. The local people believe that trees are the abode of spirits, who will lose their home once the trees are chopped down.
Therefore, to appease the spirits, they perform rituals before the tree before cutting it. People usually observe Feng Shui or indigenous tribal rituals to offer respect.
