I had this happen to a rabbit. In addition to eating their flesh, they cause toxicity in the animal. The rabbit had been sick and we were trying to keep it cool in a cage in the basement and keep it clean because it had diarrhea. One day it was biting at its legs and I looked under it and there were maggots everywhere. We rushed it to the vet and they cleaned all the maggots and her wounds but she never recovered and we lost her a few days later.
Sad and very disturbing to see.
Sorry for your loss.
