Why would you say that living things reproduce if some individual living things may not reproduce?

ALL living things reproduce. Either sexually or asexually. For instance, microscopic things such as bacteria make copies of themselves. That is still considered reproduction.

One of the characteristics of a living is that living things can reproduce. Pencils cannot reproduce so they must be nonliving
Do all living things reproduce?
One of the characteristics of a living thing is the ability to reproduce, otherwise the species of animal would become extinct. However, as of many other "rules" there are exceptions. Any mule (the offspring of two different species of animals, not necessarily a cross between a male donkey and a female horse) is unfertile.(meaning unable to reproduce) so I guess the answer is no, not every animal can reproduce.
