Why do you think animals react strangely to me?

OK, so I remember stuff like this happening to me from a very young age… whenever I go near animals it’s like they’re madly attracted to me.
I go near cats, they crowd around me, meaowing and rubbing themselves against me.
I go near dogs and they bark at me in a strange way, more yipping than barking, it isn’t a harsh sound.People who are walking them have to struggle to keep the dogs away from me.
Once I went to my cousins house and there was this stray dog in the neighborhood, it just wouldn’t leave me alone!
It was quite friendly and I played fetch with it after a while, before running to the house and shutting the door on it’s adorable face.
That dog stood there for around 3 hours barking at scratching at the door before finally going away.
Another time was when I went to a park with a big pond in it.
There were swans and ducks there who all swam over to me even though I didn’t have any food. Some ducks actually came out of the water and started following me when I started to walk back home, until I came to a busy road.These are only a number of accounts, I’ve experienced many more.
It’s not like I’m afraid of animals or anything, I actually love animals, but these strange happenings are starting to freak me out. It’s like I’m a magnet or something.
Will appreciate some advice and your opinions on why this happens.
