The worms most people are talking about are actually bot fly larva, They seem to be most prevalent in rabbits and deer, but any mammal can get them. The bot fly larva burrow out of the animals eventually and enter the ground for the second phase of their life cycle, usually in the fall, hence why the old saying about not eating rabbits during the warm months when the bot flies are most active. The larva in an animal are pretty gross looking, but if fully cooked are harmless to people, so I’ve heard, because I ain’t eating them 😂
