If part of a grounded fence is removed and rerouted with new, do I have to use the existing bonding cable or can I run new with new ground rods

For starters, why is there a grounding system? Are there light fixtures attached to the fence? Does the fence surround a high voltage substation? What electrical stuff is installed on or near the fence?

It may be more important to bond new fence to existing than to separately ground (earth) it.

I would think new with at least one connection to existing; both if feasible..
