I'm guessing someone was having farmyard fun by the ocean. Notice how they all look traumatized?

It's because at the edge of cliffs they always push back a little.

you can notice that effect at certain caves and mountains too.

All creatures have a "home" location (typically at the location of their spawner). When a creature is too far away from its home location, it tries to walk there. When walking, they don't use any smart pathing algorithm, so they can get stuck on shorelines or mountains.
It could be that the creatures were tamed on one island and released on another, like @Kareem said. When they try to walk home, they get stopped by the shoreline.
It could also be that the spawner for those creatures is on another island. If the spawn range is big enough, the creatures may accidentally spawn on a nearby island (the island you are on). Again they will get stopped by the shoreline when they try to walk home.

The effect is due to a little-known shift in the electromagnetic frequencies in certain areas of Britannia. Depending on the current cycle of the heavens, these electromagnetic disturbances wax and wane with the various astrological cycles. The animals are particularly susceptible because of their unaware nature; most people tend to see it as their "instinct". However, thanks to the magi of old, we know that these forces have an impact upon all the land, and correspond with heavenly events.
