Consider

Mnemonic

A tiger needs to think and consider its actions before it attacks. Tigers are smart hunters, so they need to consider all options and really think through a situation.

Hints

Look at this tiger as it approaches you. Think what things it has to consider. It has to consider how big of a threat you are and so on. And you need to consider how you're going to escape from this tiger.

Mnemonic

Finally, the tiger speaks: "I'm considering going to Rio (りょ). Have you ever been?"

Hints

Imagine your relief when you realize this tiger isn't considering you as prey, but is considering whether to visit Rio de Janeiro and just wants your advice. There are no tigers in South America, so I guess it's natural for one to consider Rio in its vacation plans.
