Mounted in Alaska, sometimes referred as just "Mounted" is a reality television series that airs on the History Channel. The series follows the creative works of Knight's Taxidermy, Inc. located Anchorage, Alaska; which is owned and operated by Russell Knight. The team focuses on hunting and fishing clientele, sometimes making mounts inside the client's homes. The team also specialize in taxidermy restoration and repair.
After a client harvests an African Lion, Russ tests the skills of his newest employee, Sam, a taxidermist from Mississippi who claims to be the "Cat-Man." Russ must create the world's first ever King Crab mold in order to save an old broken crab for a former fisherman.
Russ and his team are given the task of refurbishing a 40-year-old Polar Bear Mount from a popular family restaurant, but Doug almost screws up the bleaching process. Dave must master the ancient Japanese art of Gyotaku so he can make a paper print of a large fish in time for a client's family reunion.

Russ finds a mystery box on his front steps; Aaron is made team leader of a double nyala mount and goes over Russ's head.
Russ and his friend race to the spot where a Grizzly bear attacked his buddy two years ago; a client brings in a creepy box from Africa; the gang blames the animal for the run of bad luck at the shop.
Russ busts out an alligator that he took with a bow 20 years ago; Sam mounts a cape buffalo for a client who was mauled by a bear.
A man looking like Sasquatch shows up unannounced; Russ up-sells a reluctant client; Russ and Tina go head-to-head on one of Knight's rarest mounts; Doug is ordered to make more ``Wally Wackers'' from walrus bones.
