For two weeks, the Texas Hill Country held an unlikely wanderer — Gracie, a giraffe who had slipped free from a local ranch and disappeared into the rolling scrubland. Her rediscovery on Friday, just miles from where she began, closes one chapter while quietly opening another: a reckoning with how we contain the wild things we have chosen to keep. The search is over, but the questions it raised about human stewardship of exotic animals are only beginning to find their footing.
