As for the scales, someone suggested "harlequin ichthyosis". It happens in humans and animals.

A REMOTE village has become the scene of a real-life sci-fi film after a strange creature was discovered.
With scaly skin and calf-like hooves, the bizarre animal looks like a genetic mutation between a buffalo and a crocodile.
The creature, which was found in Thailand, appears to have the rough, scaly head of a reptile and limbs and hooves of a mammal.
It is not the first time a genetic cross between two species has been found, but it is one of the most unusual animals spotted.
The animal died soon after birth, according to a local website, but is believed to have brought good luck to the village and the family who made the discovery.
The creature was found in High Rock, Wanghin in Thailand.
Many weird and wonderful hybrids have appeared in the animal kingdom, from the 'zonkey' - a cross between a donkey and a zebra - and the common mule - a cross between a female horse and a male donkey.
Most hybrid animals do not occur naturally in the wild, but have been bred by humans - stirring much controversy and outrage from animal rights campaigners.
Most hybrid offspring tend to be infertile.
WHERE was this incredible creature found?
It’s still a dead water buffalo calf with a skin condition called “Alligator skin” or ichthyosis. It’s a severe case, but that’s what it is. It’s probably a birth defect, but that’s all. The head only looks weird because of the position it is in, the teeth are normal bovine.
“That just looks like a cow that has been half-burned.”
The most logical explanation I’ve heard.
Come on everyone. It’s phony! Didn’t anyone read the crock of shit article?
I told the U.S. government back in 1969-1971 that it was not a good ideal to drop all that chemical crap on the jungle.
That is an excellent question since we know something similar to this happened before and we know Webb Hubbel is dead.

Well, heifer croc is better ‘n’ none.
Hillary?
The original press release had photos from several angles, including, uh, of under the tail, and it shows a fairly normal water buffalo calf with a severe case of ichthyosis, "Alligator skin." The views of the head, being held in a normal position looked like a calf's head and its dentition were normal for ruminant calves.
A burned and rotting water buffalo calf.
posleen ? ;)
Thanks nickcarraway. Looks like a chimera, iow, assembled from parts.
Chupacabra
If Obama had a son.....
Sure it’s dead?
I meant that crocallo scans better than “buffadile” which the other poster suggested.
“Everybody’s got a water buffalo...aooooo”
Manbearpig.... (Algore bred with a crocodile)
