Are they suggesting that wolves be eliminated so these monsters have more deer to hunt? Also don't areas with deer population in US often complain about there being too many deer around?

Hunting as a way to control animal populations is an important talking point by gun and hunting groups. If ecosystems can be put into a more natural equilibrium by reintroducing apex predators, then they lose this talking point.

It's partially true, something needs to kill and scare deer or they'll starve out & destroy the habitat of every other animal in the area, but yes, wolves are waaaaaay fucking better at it and these idiots don't want em. If we were earnestly trying to restore a habitat it would be good to hunt there until the wolves get their population going
