Gracie the Giraffe Has Been Found After Days-Long Search Through Texas Hill Country
Officials said the young giraffe was found healthy on private ranch land and will be sedated before being moved back to Cedar Hollow Ranch.
- The Real County Sheriff's Office confirmed Friday that Gracie, a reticulated giraffe missing from Cedar Hollow Ranch, was found near Regan Wells on a neighboring property.
- Escaping about two weeks ago, Gracie wandered past an 8-foot-tall gate and disappeared into dense brush across the rugged Texas Hill Country terrain west of San Antonio.
- Owner Vick Jones coordinated helicopter searches across 7,500 acres and offered a $5,000 reward before Gracie was spotted four miles from the ranch, appearing "fat and happy."
- Real County Sheriff Nathan T. Johnson stated officials are waiting for a veterinarian, adding, "We're going to have to bring in a team and sedate her."
- Once sedated, Gracie will be transported back to Cedar Hollow Ranch; Jones acknowledged finding the giraffe was easy but safely corralling her presents the real challenge ahead.
