That's not how I recall it.

@TheJediCharles in the original book,it couldn't assimilate plants
-
Exactly. There is no indication it's limited in absorbing and imitating every scrap of life on the Earth. It's by no means limited to "higher life forms", particularly not just humans.
-
what if it assimilated a plant?
also, it reminds me of "The Many" concept of system shock 2
-
Exactly. It's not like humans were the only life it benefitted from using to destroy the Earth. The take-over existed on every level life exists, and it's a safe bet microscopic life was already loosing to it. Even without humans (which actually helped it's progress) it would eventually ride the ice flow and use life indigenous to the arctic, sea life and birds to spread.
It's far and away the most devastating life-form concept ever conceived in sci-fi.
Maybe an alien bio-weapon?

@TheJediCharles Then every step the Thing took, it would have left skin cells/tissue everywhere. So yeah, it's a pretty contagious creature.
-
Taken to it's ultimate conclusion, the gloves wouldn't make any difference. This Thing can not only survive, but operate in individual cells. That's like torching a heaping, 230 pound sack of influenza virus and claim not touching it was going to prevent contraction.
The instant that vessel crash landed on the Earth, it was the end of indigenous life here; the ice served only as a slowing agent and all the human resistance is mere theatrics. The Thing is unstoppable.

this thing would have been the only monster that could have been cool in cgi

Blair was at one time, just a regular guy who was unfortunately assimilated by the Thing because he forgot to call Liberty Medical, so they couldn't help him live a better life...

@drmcnashville Little did the Thing know that by assimilating him it would get diabeetus.
