	The [[African Rhino Specialist Group]] (AfRSG) has developed a paper on the conservation contribution of the Platinum Rhino Southern white rhino captive breeding operation. The paper suggests that while the number of rhinos is important, rhino conservation is not just about the total number of rhinos. Thriving African rhinos play key ecological roles within ecosystems, and their evolution depends on their genetic health, not just on population numbers. They are valued by people as iconic species and contribute to human well-being.<ref name=":0" />		The [[African Rhino Specialist Group]] (AfRSG) has developed a paper on the conservation contribution of the Platinum Rhino Southern white rhino captive breeding operation.
