[[File:Freaky forester chathead.png|left|The Freaky Forester]]The '''Freaky Forester''' is a [[random event]]. [[Player]]s are whisked away to a small clearing in a remote forest in [[Gielinor]] where they are asked to kill a [[pheasant]] with a certain number of tail feathers. The player must simply give the [[raw pheasant]] to the forester and then they are able to leave the area via a portal. Players are rewarded with a [[random event gift]]. However, if the player gives him the wrong pheasant, they will be teleported to a different area and will not receive a reward.

Attacking the pheasants always deals 50 life points, a one-hit kill, and gives no [[experience]]. However, when attacking a pheasant barrows armour will still degrade.

Players can choose to get pieces of the [[Lederhosen]] set after successfully completing this random event.

Whilst it is true that the event occurs most commonly during [[Woodcutting]], it is in fact completely random, and can happen anywhere, to anyone, training any skill. This may be due to the fact that Woodcutting trains extremely fast and may yield more random events than other skills. It also depends on player behavior; since random events were made to hinder bots, it may be beneficial to act like a bot in order to gain a random event.

==Trivia==
*"Lederhosen" comes from the traditional German wear that is popular in most festivities there.
*There is a glitch where if you try to attack your assigned pheasant with a Korasi's Sword special attack, you will receive the message: "You don't need to attack any more pheasants; you're allowed to leave." although this is before you actually kill the pheasant.
*There is a glitch where you appear on the [[Falador]] boundary wall when you are teleported back.
*If you look far enough north, when you have this event, you can see a large pool of lava right next to the edge of the forest, this is the fire runecrafting altar. A cave is visible to the north-east and part of the [[Fisher Realm]] could be seen to the south.
*When you kill a pheasant, it is nearly impossible not to pick the raw pheasant up, as the character automatically does that. This interrupts the banking interface, [[Orb of oculus]] interface and conversations with the Freaky Forester. You can't even log out before you pick up the raw pheasant from the ground. However, the [[Customisation]] interface would immediately destroy the raw pheasant on the ground.
*You cannot kill pheasants after handing in a raw pheasant, no matter if it is the right or wrong type.
