All animals are living things, there is no problem there. The problem with the definitions of 'life' and 'living thing' first arises with the viruses as they: # do not manipulate energy to perpetuate their own existence # do not have everything within themselves to perform their functional existence but rely on the functional organs of a host to complete them. Problems with the definition gets even harder with the prions as they do not even have DNA or RNA to define them but are merely perpetuating proteins maintained within another living organism. (mad cow deases, Scrapies, etc.) Crystals meet some of the definitions of a living thing as they untilize energy in the form of heat and chemiical concentrations to grow and reproduce (under the right conditions), and carry within themselves all the information necessary to perpetuate their particular existence, but nobody seriously considers them to be a living thing.
The largest living cells are usually found in fertilized bird eggs, such as ostrich eggs. These eggs can be up to 5 inches in length and 3 pounds in weight. Each egg contains a single, massive cell called an ovum.
A clone is a living thing because it is an exact genetic replica of another organism. Clones can grow, develop, and reproduce just like any other living organism.

As far as I know. There is no such living thing (animal) as a Tasmanian wolf. The nearest thing was the Tasmanian Tiger (Phylocene) and it is reputed to be extinct. It was a marsupial which means it gave birth to young not eggs.
