Default why not show the kill shot???

I was just watching an african safari where the took several animals antelope warthog etc. when they took the shot at the animal they either blurred the animal or showed the shooter then you see the dead animal.
this seems to be happening alot. you see less and less of the bullet/arrow hitting the animal. i dont quite understand the reasoning behind this are they trying to make hunting less bloody less violent or what??
if you shoot an animal its going to be bloody and messy if you hit it perfect. the worse the shot the bigger the mess and the more violent and less humain the kill.
so i say show how to make the perfect shot show how the animal reacts show the blood and alot of it. Its part of hunting and you cant make it go away. if i watched these hunting shows and decided to go out hunting and shot a deer i wouldnt know what to do after i pulled the trigger.
give me your opinion show it/dont show it and why??
thanks in adv.

p.s. Mods i hope its ok i posted this in the big game forum also i belive it pertains to bow hunters also and im looking for as much feedback as i can get.
