That's not how genetics works.
Are you a tortoise fertility specialist?
No, but tortoise have the same genetic principles. One individual just doesn't have the genetic diversity to save the whole species from dying out, no matter how much he spreads his genes. It depends on species, but numbers range around 50 to 150 individuals at minimum.
If they don't die out thanks to him, they die out the next few generations.
These guys live so long that in one of their generations, we'll be able to clone more from the remains of dead specimens.
Life, uhhhhh.... finds a way
