So far as we are aware, intelligent or otherwise, one. The earth.

However, it is likely that some form of life exists on potentially billions of planets in the universe, and odds are that some of them have developed intelligent life.

Billions of planets are out there. A tiny fraction may be similar enough to Earth to have generated life. A tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny number of those Earth-like planets that have generated life (one-celled creatures) MIGHT have life that has evolved up into walking, swimming or flying animals. A tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny number of THOSE planets may have life that has evolved into something that is is able to use tools, say, a sign of intelligence. (Higher intelligence comes from the 'accident' of the first pre-human to have opposable thumbs . . . that is, thumbs that can touch their fingerprints to the fineger prints of the other fingers.)

The number of planets that would have intelligent life similar to ours is infinitely small.

So . . . consider that 'life' may have evolved on other planets that are NOT based on carbon and oxygen. Perhaps there are creatures, for instance, that breath Methane, and are made of silicon. (Wild example, but . . . . )

At the moment, we still do not know if there is life on any of the other planets in our own Solar system! Mars could have some micro-life forms, and also some of the moons of Jupiter. Jupiter and the other gas giant planets in our Solar system could have created life in their hugely varied atmospheres, but if so, they would likely be nearly unrecognisable to Earth humans.

Why is there life on earth but not on anty outher planets?

There is life on other planets. Imagine, there are 1000 planets in the Universe for every grain of sand on the earth. That's how many planets there are, so scientifically, the chance that there must be life on other planets as well is much greater than the chance that there is no life.

Is there any life forms on other planet?

No extraterrestial life has yet been found. While many theories, based on sound statistics, do predict life on other planets, non has yet been proven to exist.Space is vast and huge may take many life times to travel to another solar system where life may contain. There's a small chance if there is life even in that solar system. Also who knows how long ago time started. There could have been life there 10000 years ago or even 1 million years ago. Planets that prove life on other planets could have exploded which will eventually happen to earth. The chances of us meeting life on other planets is very small.
