Yes, they will kill and eat YTC's in the wild. As for killing and eating one that is 2 feet longer than itself is unlikely. They might manage to kill it, but they couldn't ever eat it.

More likely the 8 foot cribo would eat the 6 foot mussie. Then again, an 8 foot ytc will be 3 times the weight of a 6 foot mussie.

Simply put, Drymarchon and Clelia both eat snakes. Clelia can kill and eat proportionally larger snake meals than Dry's can. They will both hunt, kill, eat the other if appropriately sized.

So in the Godzilla vs. Rodan battle, Godzilla always wins.
