What about a system where wolves aren't allowed to eat sheep, and everybody just chooses for themselves what to have for dinner (so long as that choice doesn't involve coercing someone else)?

Nobody "allows" wolves to eat. They do it unless they are stopped. As such, such system exists except in fantasy-lands where neither politics nor economics exist.
In that case the sheep starve, because the grass is a wolfs private property.
