No, not a mutation, it's painted in honor of the Panda baby born Thailand last May.



Quote:
BUENGCHAWARK, Thailand -- For aquarium worker Kamla Maneegan, painting baby crocodiles to look like crowd-pleasing giant pandas is more than just a job -- it's a point of national pride.
Ever since a pair of pandas on loan from China gave birth to a cub in May, Thailand has gone ga-ga for the black-and-white bears.

Personally I think Pandas are a wart on the Earth's butt. I'd love to see this little guy grow up and eat one.

I saw a picture of full grown Crocs in the zoo painted the same way.

Crocs come in all colors but I still won't wear them. My feet slide out too easily.

You need some Mary Jane crocs. I don't have any myself (being vehemently against crocs), but one of the girls who works in the lunchbar downstairs swears by them.
