I too thought it strange that any tourist could get anywhere near a calf like that but the bison are accustom to seeing tourists and after calves are born, standing for long periods of time, following the herd is hard on them. The herd could have moved a little out of sight, while the calf was laying down and that was when the tourist saw it and took it. The only other reason the cow and herd would abandon a calf is if it were sick but even then I don't see the cow going far from a new born calf. I guess we will never know.
