Efforts to save the Northern White Rhino from extinction has gained momentum after step ahead following the creation of a third in-vitro embryo. Scientists repeated an exercise on December 17, using the frozen sperms harvested from the deceased male and created another embryo in support of the Kenyan government. The scientists carried out the egg harvesting at the Ol Pejeta conservancy. The team said this can be achieved by working with the pure Northern White Rhino's embryo. At the same time, the team transported the semen of Sudan, the last male North White Rhino that died in March 2018 from Kenya to Germany.
