Why UK Trees Are Locked Up

Can someone please tell me why all trees in the UK are locked in tiny cages, do people steal them?

The clip begins with a street view in the UK showing a small tree protected by a metal cage, then cuts to a bearded man indoors who reacts animatedly and appears to explain the situation. The joke comes from treating ordinary tree guards as tiny prison cells and sincerely wondering whether people steal trees; the music and exaggerated talking-head reaction make the misunderstanding feel absurd and comedic.
