When it all boils down to it, the deer is dead, and they dont care how they died or what happens afterwards. I dont think they care, honesty, myself, I wouldnt either. When I die I will loose the ability to care im sure so whatever happens happens, deer have even less of an understanding than that. All it is, is lights out for them, and thats all.

Really the only reason we take "quality" pictures is to please ourselves and others, not the deer, deer dont care. Same with mouting them, and even eatting them. I highly doubt they worry about what happens when they die, they dont even know what death is.
