An Irish bull famously saved from slaughter even though his owners thought he was gay has now surprised them by trying to mate with cows.
Benjy the bull from County Mayo faced the chop last year because he showed more interest in other bulls than in cows.
However, after the Simpsons co-creator Sam Simon (deceased) stumped up the money to buy him, Benjy was moved to Hillside Animal Sanctuary in Norwich, England.
Hillside staff noted that after castration Benjy showed a special interest in some of the cows he was housed with.
His story has run in Pink News, Europe’s largest gay news service.
