I have always tried to clean up the face of the animal, but I leave the entrance/exit wounds alone. I always want to know where someone shot their animal so I show it. However, if the guts were hanging out or it was anything more than a red hole I would do something. I am not trying to gross anyone out with the picture, just trying to paint a picture. I have always found it weird when it looks like the guy is petting the thing and it could get up and walk off whenever it wanted to. I know many think that is ideal, but it is just what I like.
