This is such a misguided decision. In my opinion, wolves - as do all wildlife - have greater value than the humans with which they share the planet. They do more to balance the elements of Nature ... and we do more to profit by exploiting Nature at any cost to its wildlife. Predation of livestock is a cost of doing business. If you're going to ranch in wolf habitat, then accept that your livestock will suffer predation. Factor it into your cost and let  your customers know that's part of what they're paying for.
