( not gracie, but a cute giraffe modeling being in a similar situation)

A 3-year-old giraffe named Gracie escaped from her enclosure at a Texas Hill Country ranch nearly two weeks ago and remains missing despite helicopter searches, reported sightings, and a $5,000 reward. Ranch owner Vic Jones believes she wandered through rugged terrain and exited through the wrong side of a gate. Authorities say Gracie poses little danger to people because she is in a remote, heavily wooded area with abundant vegetation and will have no problem finding food. Local officials and residents continue searching, though leads have often arrived days after she moved on, making recovery difficult.

  21. why would he have a giraffe? was she the only one? is she searching for herd. Poot thing first taken from her natural habitat and now fending for herself against who knows what prey animals. I hope she lands some place safe.

    • It sounded like she lived on his ranch which was a refuge and had other animals and the area’s landscape was similar to where she would live in Africa.
