   Howdy Robin,   
     I carry a wristrocket (fancy slingshot). I use it for distance   
   defence. That is when the animal is 30 feet away or so. The other thing   
   that I have when the animals are in close is a 3 foot long piece of   
   garden hose. The coyotes here still fear people. It is the packs of dogs   
   that I have trouble with.
