I'm sorry, I couldn't resist the irony of the headline, which is a metaphor for modern US politics, with democrat money, saving "the great northern white rhino(RINO).

All that aside, hope the pregnancy is successful.

Story says last two Rinos were female. I don’t have a PhD in biology, but I’m pretty sure you need a male and female to make this happen - just wondering

If northern and southern white rhinos are the same species, then they can use this to create rhino calves to reintroduce in the north.

If they are not the same species, then I don’t see how this can work unless there are stored ova and spermatozoa for future IVF.

Here’s a good video on the whole effort. They have a lot of embryos that can stay frozen for years, to bring back this species - video answers a lot of questions:
