We were caping a deer today and noticed some white, kind of flat worms coming from the mouth and throat.  They are about 1" long.  I have never seen these before.  We are located in North Carolina.  Does anybody know what these could be?

They are a larvae of some type of bug. I forgot the name but is fairly common here in NC. Freaked me out the first time I came across them.
