Benjy the bull walks in a field in Couny Mayo Ireland on Sunday Nov. 2, 2014. Benjy faced execution for failure to perform. But Benjy, the gay bull of Ireland, has been saved following a worldwide appeal backed by &#8220;The Simpsons&#8221; co-creator Sam Simon. Ireland&#8217;s Animal Rights Action Network said Tuesday that Simon is paying for Benjy&#8217;s transportation to an animal sanctuary in England. Simon, who is battling colon cancer, has been giving away much of the fortune from his television career and is a leading donor to animal welfare causes. Benjy, a Charlerois bull, failed this year to impregnate any heifers at a County Mayo farm in western Ireland. Veterinarians determined he was fertile, but was more attracted to the bull that replaced him. (AP Photo/Joanna McNicholas)
