Well, you've got to be alive to do anything.
Literal
Life having, [possessive-の] thing [copula-だね].
命有っての物種 is a proverb — literally 'a thing is a seed only as long as life exists.' Here shortened and colloquialized with commas and ね. The pattern ~あっての [noun] means 'X that depends on Y / X only because of Y.' The full proverb 命あっての物種 is a common saying warning against reckless risk: 'without life, nothing else matters.'
