FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - A child got the full attention of Gus the gorilla at the Fort Worth Zoo.

The zoo shared a photo on its Facebook page of the gorilla and little girl looking at each other and putting their hands on the glass in the same spot.

The zoo posted, "As he gets older, Gus is exploring more and more of the world around him, which includes encounters with new friends like Braylee of Fort Worth."

Folks on Facebook like Kelli Guilford ate it up!

"Oh be still my beating heart!!! Can this be anymore adorable?" Guilford said.

Gus was born at the Fort Worth Zoo last December, the first gorilla born in the zoo's 107-year history.
