I sometimes see in literature that Rat snakes can be opportunistic (like King & Milk snakes) and occasionally feed on other snakes.

1) Has anyone seen this in the wild?
2) Does anyone know of a captive that ate another snake?

1.0 Lampropeltis getula floridana
1.0 Pantherophis obsoleta quadrivittata
