There's no right or wrong answer to any of this but it is fun to speculate.
It really is! :)
I wonder if it is likely the Men would share this ability if it's specifically given to a Maia.
That's an interesting aspect. Now that I've been thinking on it for a while, I also believe it might get boring pretty soon if too many people had such an ability - all of the Dunedain in addition to the Maiar and the elves would probably be a bit too many. *g* But I still like the idea that perhaps Aragorn has a certain affinity to at least some animals. It actually makes me wonder if Peter Jackson ever thought about that and if the Brego-Aragorn scenes were inspired by it.
