Why do all jungle tanks do magic damage?

If my entire team is magic damage, but we have no frontline I'm basically forced to play a bruiser like Rek'Sai or Kayn which is pretty sucky since they have no utility in their kit.

There's physical damage tank moves out there like Sejuani's W. Typically I think they make most tanks do magic damage because most damage is AD and it's harder to stack MR than armour, so it naturally keeps their damage a bit more relevant. That's my theory at least, same with supports all doing magic damage when they work alongside AD champions.

Well, define "tank"; if we're talking tanky characters who run through the jungle, then you are neglecting MonkeyKing Volibear Trundle Skarner Olaf JarvanIV Hecarim, all have good tank builds and do good amounts of physical damage.

How often does this even happen?
