I don't particularly care whether they get triggered by the term. "Alpha male" in the modern day use of the word and "toxic masculinity" are basically the same things. If people are too sensitive to handle honest statements then that's their own problem. I gain nothing from walking on eggshells, and honestly I don't think anyone else truly does either. People need to toughen up a bit these days.
As for the wolves - I still see it as the equivalent of saying "even parrots don't act this way, so why do cows?" We are a different species. We have different needs, survival mechanisms, etc. The wolf argument is a double-edged sword; when you look at the flip side of the coin, is rape okay because wolves do it? Of course not, but if you reject this argument and accept the former, you're inconsistent in your reasoning. Rather than modeling our behaviors off of other species, we should be able to form proper conclusions based upon cause and effect, pros and cons. When some kind of social construct inflicts damage onto those we socialize with, that should be what tells us something. Animal ways are also flawed, after all...they do harm one another.
