[eshahid]

On one side of the comparison, we have 'the Sumatran rhino'.
We need something parallel/similar on the other side.

Like those of / Like that of / Black Rhino's / Similar to that of :
all the phrases above refer to things belonging to Rhino and not the Rhino itself.

'E' should be the answer.

'Like that of' is used for singular construction.
'Like those of' is used for plural constructions.
