A 1,200-pound giraffe named Gracie is found in Texas Hill Country after spending about two weeks roaming following an escape from Cedar Hollow Ranch in Leakey, Texas. Multiple outlets report that the giraffe is located on Friday just miles from her enclosure, after an aerial search involving a helicopter and public attention amplified through viral social media posts. CBS and City News Toronto say Gracie is spotted a short distance from the ranch, with City News Toronto citing the she is seen roughly 4 miles south of her enclosure. Fox News similarly describes the discovery as occurring during the helicopter-based search.

All sources agree on the key timeline: Gracie wanders away from the ranch, remains missing for roughly two weeks, and is then spotted again in the same general region of the Texas Hill Country during the final phase of the search.
