Okay, I stand corrected....
From what you say, it seems some White rhinos have the hair fringes, but not others? I do have some postcards of the male Northern White which used to live at the London Zoo, and he had hair fringes on the ears. I've seen photos of(some of) the Northern Whites at Dvur Kralov and they seem to have them to.
I also looked closely at Whipsnade's(Southern) whites recently and none of them seemed to have them.
But I'll take your word that its nothing to do with the subspecies....
