He learns to communicate, and discovers human values and morals, finds humans atrocious. So, he desperately wants to return to the wild, to his wolven family, but is condemned from doing so...
How should I end it?

Have him do a speech to the people around him, saying that he prefers the feral life; that he respects their views, but he's going to return to the wild anyway. Have the crowd become more and more angry during his little speech until, at eh end, they are enraged and attack him. End the play with the main character lying on the floor, obviously quite injured, with some of the people giving little cheers, or commenting that they've 'tamed' him or something. The supposed savagery of his feral lifestyle will be counterpointed by the actual savagery of the intolerant, 'civilised' majority.
That probably doesn't fit too well with a farce though.
