I assume we are running out of options here for Northern Whites... Neverthless every rhino female carries millions of eggs just like any other mammal I guess..What if these eggs will be extracted somehow, artificially inseminated and planted into a healthy female of Southern White Rhino? Technically, even infertile females in San Diego zoo might bring something to the table this way. Just thinking out loud.
