After much research, the purchase of a Ruger 10/22 DSP "for self defence against small rodents" and the near-purchase of a Remington 870 Express Compact Tactical (nobody should live in the country without a pump gun) I concluded that my 12 gauge over/under plus a pocketful of #4 buckshot was all I needed to deal with a hypothetical hostile coyote pack.
Mostly they just sit out in the park and howl for a while at sundown, which is just fine with me. Hopefully they'll eat all the little animals that would otherwise obey centuries of genetic programming and move into my basement for the winter.
