So I went to check on a badger skeleton that’s been out in the local woods and it’s covered in SOMETHING IDFK worms or some shit it’s real bad.

This is just the worst thing.

So a few theories have surfaced as to what this could be! Some include:

Fast moving slime mold

I’m thinking this is unlikely. I’ve never heard of a mold that can move this fast. And the footage is not sped up.

Nematodes

I was thinking nematodes, but apparently they don’t move like this according to an entomology group.

A different species of maggot

I feel like they are way too small for this to be the case.

Annelid worms

Thats a wide group of species.

Grindal worms (like the ones fed to beta fish)

They do look a lot like these, or maybe a similar species.
