It's called crested and it's actually a deformity. People continue to breed this deformity even though having that crest on their head causes a variety of health issues. You should never buy a crested duck because it supports the continued breeding of them.

So sorry for your loss, all I can suggest is having a completely predator proof pen at night. Maybe also depending on how big that pond is you might be able to get a large bird netting meant for a garden and cover the pond with it. Since he successfully got a meal he will come back for another.
