    Queen's Brian May: 'I'd rather be remembered for saving animals'

    "When I'm gone, people will no doubt remember me for Queen, but I would much rather be remembered for attempting to change the way we treat our fellow creatures."

    What a great guy, and Freddy Mercury was, too!

    I did not know that about him!

    Just some of the animals on the estate include 36 hedgehogs, seven badger cubs and two tawny owls, which form part of May's Save Me organisation, for which May received an International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) award.

    I remember Brian May from way back, but didn't know about his animals.

    Karen, did you know that Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull has a Bengal cat sanctuary?

    It's so great that both of these men have the money to do this kind of thing for the animals. I knew that I liked the band "Queen" for a reason.
