Uh...no, there is absolutely no evidence to date that there is, or was, life of any sort on Mars. You've been misinformed.
Regardless of that, yes, mars could be readily terraformed. That's not to say "easily terraformed" or "quickly terraformed" mind you. -

It CAN support life, just not the type of life we know that needs oxygen to live. Have you seen some pictures of Mars? They are strinkingly similar to Earth. I actually emailed them to a few co-workers of mine and asked where they thought this was and most people replied back with "Arizona or 'some rugged area in the desert?' "

It's rather simple. If the bacteria is indeed found, then life indeed existed. Mars did have liquid water at one time, which is essential to carbon-based life. There's no evidence that there are or were "Martians" though. Just simple and primitive bacteria. Bacteria is life too.
So, if the temperature were to be raised enough by raising the CO2 levels, vegetation could survive even now. That vegetation would produce the oxygen necessary to support animal life. So, as it stands now, Mars has the ingredients of a habitable planet, just not the temperature. -

yes, and i do believe there is life there now. the life there, though, are not humans, but what we call 'aliens'. i think that they have adaptations that make it possible for them to live on mars, just like us humans have adaptations that make it possible for us to live on earth. and since no human has ever traveled to Mars, no one will know for sure until the planet is searched, which will probaly be hundreds of years from now because we dont have the right equiptment and such to get us there now and be able to survive on the planet. I also think that the 'aliens' have much more intelligence than us humans and have already created machines ('UFOs') that can come to earth, or close to it.
these are only my opinions, though.
if not on mars, there is NO DOUBT that there is other living creatures SOMEWHERE else in the whole universe. no doubt at all. Earth isnt so special as to be the only planet containing life. -

There may have been life on Mars billions of years ago but unlike Earth, Mars does not have a molten iron core that generates a magnetic field to repel stellar radiation. Without an internal heat source to fuel any subterrainian life beneath the range of the suns radiation or a magnetic field to protect an atmosphere that supports life from burning off, Mars is a big hunk of dead rock. -

"A pair of NASA scientists told a group of space officials at a private meeting here Sunday that they have found strong evidence that life may exist today on Mars, hidden away in caves and sustained by pockets of water."
"What Stoker and Lemke have found, according to several attendees of the private meeting, is not direct proof of life on Mars, but methane signatures and other signs of possible biological activity remarkably similar to those recently discovered in caves here on Earth."

I heard tabout the bacteria they found there, and i've also heard they found algae on the Red Planet. My understanding is, if there is algae, there is water, if there is water, there is oxygen, if there is oxygen, men can breathe, and breathing man means they are living? correct me if i'm wrong, and then i'll really start considering what Morpheus asked Neo: "Do you think that's air you're breathing now?" @_@ -

Can or could is really the question. As I understand this issue the planet mars shows signs of primitive development that went away. I think looking for life in our solar system is pointless, but outside of it there is no question that it must exist.
Answered Yes
I belive there is different form of life elsewhere in the galaxy.
