Answer to Question 1

The tree will be cut into logs before it is sawed into lumber. Thus, any extra length beyond that of the standard
log will not be usable for saw timber



Answer to Question 2

It is called girdling. The tree will die because the outer and inner bark have been removed and no food can get
from the leaves to the roots. The roots will die first then the rest of the tree will die.
