The invention discloses a felling and holding device. The device comprises two holding plates which are provided with cutting saws and are arranged in an arc shape, the upper ends of the two holding plates are rotationally connected, the inner sides of the two holding plates are fixedly connected with a holding belt, a plurality of rotating columns are rotationally connected to each clamping beltat equal intervals, the holding belt is filled with liquid, and each rotating column is divided into a plurality of cavities by a holding belt. According to the device, through the interaction of structures such as a cavity, a flow guide hole, a rotary column and the like, the internal liquid flows when the wood pile is extruded, the part which is extruded under the action of pressure can be flattened, the flattened part can be attached to the surface of the timber pile, the friction force is increased, at the same time, under the limit of the rotating column, the whole timber pile is fixed, the wood pile does not rotate under the action of gravity when lifted upwards, so that the wood piles are tightly held, cutting of the cutting saw is facilitated, the safety of the felling is improved,and the wood piles are prevented from loosening and falling.
