A man walks into the taxidermist with two monkeys. The taxidermist asked if he wanted them mounted. The man said, "No. Shaking hands will be fine."

Listen up, smoothbrain. Taxidermists mount animals, as in, they preserve them in a lifelike state for display. The dude in the joke is playing on the word "mounted", as if the taxidermist was asking if he wanted the monkeys to do something else entirely. It's funny because it's unexpected, like you suddenly understanding a joke.
