Euthanasia tourists snap up pet shop drug in Mexico (Reuters)

A veterinary supply shop is seen at the northern border city of Nuevo Laredo, in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas, May 29, 2008.

Tourists from as far as Australia have traveled to Mexico to buy liquid pentobarbital, which causes a painless death in humans in less than an hour, right-to-die advocates say.
