"I saw a gorilla,” Braylee bragged. “Gus touched my hands.”
The picture of Braylee and Gus joining hands through a glass display on Monday has been shared thousands of times on Facebook and Twitter.
"Momma had ahold of baby Gus and he kind of stood up and turned around and stood up to Braylee, and Braylee stood there. They kind of just stood and stared at each other for a few minutes,” explained Cadee Davis, Braylee’s mom. “And we were like oh my gosh and my mom was like take a picture take a picture!"
"We've heard from Spain, the Philippines, Denmark, the United Kingdom,” said Alexis Wilson with the Fort Worth Zoo.
And Braylee, who is about to turn 3, hasn't stopped talking about it.

"It's just kind of something that's joyful and funny and exciting and sweet and innocent,” said Davis.
“And that's why I think maybe it took off."
