Seven years
She has been inseminated
She is not free though, right? What is going to happen to the calf? It will stay there too

Obviously these captive rhinos don't breed well.
I doubt that these rhino "rehabilitations" will be successfull unless you could release them back to the their natural habitat which obviously does not happen once the calves entered one of these sanctuaries. What's the point of breeding rhino there? Rather invest the money in protecting the rhinos in their environment

It is pretty experimental stuff, Klippies!
Yes, ideally there would be no poaching and no orphans?
They are reintroduced eventually, to safe areas.

These captive grown up rhino will be there forever
