Markham: Your supporting arguments are weak: that wolves kill humans ("They also will hunt small children and family pets") is a reaction to fear, your fear. And fear is the universal human motivator, hence supporters of Donald Trump. As for Coke Wallace, I doubt his statement was meant to be ironic. I get the sense that Coke Wallace is one of the Great Takers of the world and he's too busy to engage in irony.

Speaking of irony, I like your statement, "It is hyperbole to suggest that the death of three wolves who were hunting near homes destroyed the lives of millions of people because they didn’t see a wolf in the park." "...destroyed the lives of millions of people...". The hyperbolist here is you.

At last, you do make a good point. Both humans and wolves like their meat. So how do we manage for both? Seems like Alaska is already a state-run game farm. Members of the Board of Game would rather eat a bar of soap than give attention to a pro-conservation proposal.
