Descriptions from early times indicate that the region was rich in wild reindeer, bears, otters, foxes, squirrels, beavers and grouse, and place names such as Goddejávri / Wild Reindeer Lake and Čavkkus / The Otter provide information about hunting and trapping areas. Archaeological finds tell of a widespread hunting and trapping culture where the fur trade provided good financial returns.
