Dean I heard years ago from a vet friend that also liked to deer hunt about deer with dense populations having liver fluke issues. That might of been why that deer's liver was so messed up but it sound just like one I shot. When cleaning deer he took out the liver on about a 4 year old doe and showed me the inside, it looked like what you described. It might not have lived another year if liver was messed up like that. . Supposedly no issue with eating a deer with liver flukes but I don't eat wild game innards knowingly...
BTW the French will eat anything. Hence I think they were the ones that coined the phrase "Hunger makes the best sauce", probably were thinking about Woodcock when they came up with that one. Plus spend anytime with Cajuns and Creoles and that saying is alive and true. Learned a long time ago not to ask to many questions. It took me a while to be able to eat crawfish the right way and not look like a wimp to in-laws.
