Kresh is a big elite turtle swimming in the caverns’ waterways. Once defeated, he only comes back when the dungeon resets.
Step 3 : Be patient
Wowhead puts the drop chance between 0.16 and 0.28%, so expect plenty of runs.

Keep it in your bags to cross a lake or escape by swimming, and take it off as soon as you’re back on dry land.
