If you are seeing lots, it might be connected to the high wolf population. I only saw it once in a moose that I shot and that was an old moose. All the other moose were devoid of any sign of worms.

I'm finding them in the heart meat of the moose we got this year.
Old bull. Looks like fatty globs about 3mm; found 3 so far.
Outdoors Canada has a page on game animal parasites these appear to not be a problem at all.
As previously stated the official party line is "look the moose was so well fed he had fatty deposits in his muscles"
Chow down.
There's way more disgusting stuff in a can of soup.
Don't look into it.
You don't want to know.

Make like a baby and head out!

You might want to take a de-worming pill.
Every kid and dog on a farm/ranch gets one annually, adults too. Pretty simple solution.

If anybody has stuff like this pop up again....take a pic of it with something like a quarter or a loonie as a size reference and I'll send it to my Dad. He is now a retired well known moose biologist/dork and parasitoligist; if he has something to do he'll stop sending me somewhat pointless emails 20 times a day
If it's something that shows up in a moose or elk/caribou/deer I can pretty much guarantee he's seen it, will tell you what it is and if the meat or organ is edible.
