Solution
"The beast had made a kill; her jaws were bloody, and she was coming to slake her thirst in the spring."
In the sentence above, three forms of punctuation were added:
- Semi-colon (;) after "kill" to separate two independent clauses that are closely related in thought.
- Comma (,) after "bloody" to separate the coordinating conjunction "and" from the rest of the sentence.
- Period (.) at the end of the sentence to indicate its completion.
